Josip Ilicic Almost Joined Milan Instead Of Palermo - Agent

From Goal.com

Josip Ilicic could have joined Milan instead of Palermo in the summer, the player's agent revealed.

The 22-year-old Slovenian has been in sensational form since joining the Sicilian outfit as his playmaking skills have complemented those of Javier Pastore to great effect.

Ilicic's agent, though, says that his client could have easily joined Milan if the Rossoneri had made more concrete moves.

“I offered Ilicic to many Italian clubs and Milan also seemed tempted. Many clubs had the DVD with his games on it but Palermo believed in him the most and beat everyone to him.

“I have thought about how many teams now regret not signing him.

“The Slovenian League is full of good players and there is already a preferential relationship with Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini.”


Great.. after Pastore, now Josip Ilicic...
