Juventus talisman Alessandro Del Piero is linked with a sensational switch to Milan as contract negotiations with the Old Lady continue to stall.
The 32-year-old had been expected to commit the rest of his career to the Bianconeri, but he has been frustrated by the offer tabled and sporting director Alessio Secco has admitted he could leave.
Milan boss Carlo Ancelotti has even admitted that he eyeing a move for the unsettled star.
“There’s nothing to say that Del Piero couldn’t come to Milan on a free transfer,†he told the Press after the Rossoneri’s disastrous night in Glasgow.
While it seems unlikely that one of Juventus’ great servants would turn his back on the club, the marriage has been strained of late.
Del Piero was said to be hurt when fans jeered him during his slow start to the campaign and he raged that the club had treated him with a “lack of respect†during contract talks.
Secco's declaration last week that Juve were at risk of losing Alex seems to have been something of an own goal.
Del Piero's camp reacted angrily to the comment as it seemed to suggest a lack of flexibility on the club's side.
Pinturricchio’s brother and agent Stefano is currently locked in negotiations with officials in Turin, but the longer the discussions go on without a handshake the more rumours will spread.
Del Piero to join Milan?
