Pippo backs home remedy
Wednesday 26 March, 2008

Milan striking veteran Pippo Inzaghi has implored the Rossoneri not to look abroad for forward options this summer but to trust the men they have.

The world champions are being linked with a host of foreign stars, including Didier Drogba, Emmanuel Adebayor, Dimitar Berbatov and Mario Gomez as they look to increase their firepower.

However, Inzaghi believes that the best options may lie closer to home with men already under contract at San Siro.

‘In my opinion, Milan only need to make a few slight modifications this summer,” the 34-year-old claimed.

“There’s no need for any revolution, especially in attack. We already have Alexandre Pato, Alberto Gilardino and Alberto Paloschi guaranteed to be here.

“Marco Borriello is doing so well at Genoa and I would not hesitate in recalling him. He is strong, powerful and has developed very well during the season.

“I repeat – I don’t want any foreign marksmen. Milan already have stronger players than many other sides and they just need to be given confidence.”

However, there is still speculation that the unsettled Gilardino will quit the club in the summer as he continues to receive irregular starts.
