| Galliani promises big name |

Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani intends to win the fans over by signing a big name striker this summer.
Last month, the Rossoneri sold Kaka to Real Madrid in a £56m transfer, but they have yet to spend any of that money.
No 1 transfer target Edin Dzeko told Milan he intended to see out the rest of his contract with Wolfsburg, sending them back to the drawing board.
This morning, the Italian Press claimed Milan have made a £12m bid for Sevilla striker Luis Fabiano, who had a fantastic Confederations Cup.
Other reports have linked the Rossoneri with Real Madrid's Dutch centre-forward Klaas-Jan Huntelaar.
“A very important striker will arrive, but not on Monday, the day of the market,” Galliani told Sky Sport 24.
“However, the coup will arrive by the end of August.”
Asked if the striker in question would be Fabiano or Huntelaar, Galliani replied: “I don't exclude them.”
He also revealed that negotiations for Porto full-back Aly Cissokho had reopened.
Milan looked to have signed the 21-year-old Frenchman last month only for concerns about his teeth and what they said about his posture to scupper the move.
“The deal for Cissokho is on stand-by. We will see what happens,” Galliani concluded.
