DiMarzio claiming that he is flying to the UK today after turning down the offer from Milan. Talks due with Southampton & Sunderland?

Despite passing a medical, Martin Caceres won't be joining Milan. The former Juventus defender didn't reach a financial agreement with the rossoneri, who were offering a salary of around €250k with bonus of €25k for each game played. Caceres will now ponder offers from the Premier League, in fact today he'll travel to club to gauge his options. Southampton, who previously tried to sign Philippe Mexes but wasn't convinced by his phsycal form, appears to be interested and Sunderland could join the race. Caceres' future won't likely take place in Serie A after he turned down Milan's proposal

 

Is he a free agent? Can he join now? Or has to wait for summer?

 

Interesting. You'd think the only reason he's choose Sunderland over us, if this is true, would be wages. (Or Sunderland offering a longer contract - but presumably both of us are only interested in a short term deal until the summer? Why would Sunderland in particular risk having him on their wage bill in the Championship?)

 

Free agent. Could be worth a punt as 2 week break coming up after Sunderland game. Give him and club a chance to get fitness levels and training ground preparations?

 

Will only be offered 5 month deal I'd imagine, but if we really want him I think we'd pay him more than Sunderland?

Depends. Sunderland might "really want him" too. And when you're in serious, serious relegation trouble, then sometimes you do stupid things/take drastic measures.

 

DiMarzio is usually more in the know than the Croydon Advertiser. Plus how much more money can they spend? Lol

 

At least it shows that Les is still looking.

 

Hang on. Can someone confirm my counting - I make it that Palace and Sunderland have both used up their full quota of 25 players.

We have 23 players registered.

Surely Palace would only be after him to stop others getting him?

Having already taken Sakho

 

Apparently there would be problems with a work permit - this is from other forums - I have no clue at all myself.

Just got over a fairly hefty injury - so that should suit us - hasn't played for a year - definitely we'll have him.

Will not play in the next three games at least - so I think we should almost certainly sign him.

Having said that, desperate beggars can't be choosers and it's a warm body that can play football....

 

Past a medical at Milan the other day.

 

Well I counted em and you're right
Never considered this before as there isn't usually any free-agent action going on out of the window

 

My understanding is that he won't qualify automatically but that his record would make an appeal success likely

 

Get him in Les FFS!

 

Good point - and perhaps he's experience and wiser head might help - it probably can't make our current defensive options any more precarious.

 

Euro 250k a what? If that's year then okay. If it's a week then that's not happening. Maybe it's a month. What the actual ****?

 

If he's up for coming here and we think he can do a job then get it done imo.
