Juve monitor new Cafu

Italian champions Juventus are today being linked with Brazil’s attacking right-back Cicinho.

The Sao Paulo player is widely considered as Marcos Cafu’s heir in the national side and has caught the attention of numerous clubs.

Cicinho, who is on the verge of gaining EU status thanks to his Italian roots, recently impressed at the Confederations’ Cup in Germany.

It was believed that Milan would make a move for the defender but the Old Lady of Italian football have emerged as contenders on Friday.

Although he recently extended his contract with his South American club until 2008, he would consider a European switch – even if that is only likely to happen next summer.

Whispers suggest that any proposed deal would cost any interested party a total of £8m, with 40 per cent of that fee going directly to the player.

The Bianconeri are looking for a new right-back and have been linked with numerous players this summer.

Lazio’s Massimo Oddo has been associated, as has Portuguese international Miguel of Benfica.

Juventus’ current first choice right-sided defender is former Cagliari and Roma player Jonathan Zebina.

Milito walks out on Genoa

Genoa hitman Diego Milito has alerted clubs including Juve, Inter and Real Saragozza that he is looking for a move elsewhere.

“There has been terrible chaos here,” said the striker after his club was demoted to the Third Division. “We had earned our promotion to Serie A, but if the decision is confirmed then I cannot avoid leaving. I will not play in Serie C1.”

Genoa’s celebrations at their first promotion in a decade were short-lived, as they have been pushed down to Serie C and docked three points as a result of a match-fixing scandal. The last game of the season, a 3-2 win over Venezia, was shrouded in controversy and the Disciplinary Commission ruled that there had been irregularities.

Now Milito – who has scored 33 goals in two seasons – is ready to walk out on the club that brought him to Italy. He is already a target for Juventus, Inter and Real Saragozza.

“The Spaniards know I will make a decision over the next few days,” he told ‘AS’ newspaper. “It would be great to play alongside my brother Gabriel at Saragozza and their interest makes me proud. It’s not entirely up to me, though, as Inter are also in negotiations with Genoa. Before making any choices, I must find out where the Rossoblu will be playing next season.”

Genoa have appealed against the demotion and will know their fate before the calendars are drawn up on August 12.

Abbiati future in doubt

A number of Italian clubs are interested in signing new Genoa goalkeeper Christian Abbiati following their demotion.

The port club were thrown into the Third Division last week for alleged match-fixing which has now placed Abbiati’s loan switch from Milan into doubt.

Abbiati does want a first team shirt in order to win a place at the 2006 World Cup, but is unlikely to accept the prospect of Serie C football.

Should Genoa’s appeal against their punishment fail then Abbiati is expected to assess his options.

Serie A minnows Siena and Livorno have both been linked with the former Scudetto winner as they are looking for shot-stoppers.

Palermo could also make a move after they pulled out of a swoop to net Galatasaray’s Faryd Ali Mondragon.

The Colombian shot-stopper, 34, was expected to sign last week but the Sicilian outfit pulled out at the last minute.

Palermo already made an approach for Abbiati last summer but Milan refused to let the international custodian leave at the time.

Toro appeal rejected - Messina back in A!
The verdicts are in from the TAR tribunal and it’s not good news for Torino, Perugia, Salernitana and Napoli – but Messina are back in Serie A.

Messina’s appeal has been accepted and the Sicilian club is readmitted to the top flight after a lengthy legal battle. Theirs was always the most solid position out of all the bankruptcy-threatened sides and supported by the local council.


The Lazio tribunal examined appeals against financially troubled clubs’ exclusion from Serie A and B, but mainly reiterated the verdict given by the football authorities.


This means that Torino are still out of the top flight, while Perugia and Salernitana will not be allowed to register for Serie B.


"We remain confident," stated Granata President Attilio Romero. "We had already been working towards having the right paperwork for the State Counsel on August 9."


Torino registered for the Championship with a bank draft that later proved to be false. The club claimed it was the victim of fraud, but has so far been unable to find financial backing to cover their £27.5m debts


In all 16 motions were handed to the TAR today – five of which were from Napoli in a bid to highlight ‘irregularities’ in the accounts of Arezzo, Ascoli, Brescia, Pescara and Vicenza – but all were rejected. Benevento have also been excluded from Serie C1.


The situation is still in the air, however, as the clubs can all lodge one final appeal to the State Counsel on August 9 - before the fixture lists are drawn up on August 12.


That date could also prove decisive for Messina, as the FIGC will probably lodge their own appeal to the State Counsel in order to have Messina excluded from the top flight.


Football clubs in Italy must prove their financial stability before registering for the new season. If they fail to do so, they are excluded and pushed down a Division to start again under new ownership.

Allarme a Fuorigrotta: bomba carta presso sede Coni.

Fermati due facinorosi, di cui č ancora ignota l'identitą, con l'accusa di danneggiamento aggravato, detenzione e porto di materiale esplodente. Il misfatto č forse ricollegabile alle ultime vicende della Napoli Soccer.

Una bomba carta e' stata fatta esplodere questa notte davanti all'ingresso della sede di Napoli del Coni a piazzale Tecchio, provocando danni ancora da quantificare. Per quest'episodio, secondo le prime notizie, la Digos della Questura di Napoli ha subito dopo fermato due tifosi del Napoli considerati appartenenti a una delle frange piu' estremiste del tifo azzurro. I due - dei quali non e' stata ancora resa nota l'identita' - sono stati bloccati con l'accusa di danneggiamento aggravato, detenzione e porto di materiale esplodente in concorso e uno di loro anche per detenzione di sostanza stupefacente. L'episodio, secondo la polizia, potrebbe essere collegato alle ultime vicende del Napoli, con la bocciatura, prima da parte della Camera Arbitrale del Coni e poi dal Tar del Lazio, dei ricorsi contro le squadre accusate di non essere in regola con i versamenti all'Inail. Il no alle istanze del club azzurro, al momento, preclude il ripescaggio della squadra in serie B.
