| Reports: Milan pounce for Pennant |

There are reports that Milan are ready to swoop for Liverpool outcast Jermaine Pennant.
The 25-year-old has fallen out of favour at Anfield and his contract is set to expire in the summer.
According to English sources, Milan have prepared a pre-contract agreement and are expecting to welcome Pennant to San Siro in the summer on a free transfer.
Rumours suggest that Real Madrid saw a £3m bid accepted two weeks ago, but a deal failed to materialise due to Pennant's personal terms.
Milan fans will remember Pennant for his role in the 2007 Champions League Final where he impressed despite Liverpool's 2-1 defeat.
Wigan Athletic, Blackburn Rovers and Tottenham are also in the hunt for Pennant, but their efforts could be blown away by a bid from Milan.
Meanwhile, Milan's hopes of luring Liverpool defender Daniel Agger have faded.
Although Agger isn't willing to renew his contract at Anfield, manager Rafa Benitez is determined to keep the 24-year-old at the club and Milan's efforts are likely to be rebuffed.
