Cagliari goalkeeper Federico Marchetti, currently on loan from Albionleffe, has been targeted by AC Milan as their future custodian.The 26-year-old has been scouted by the Rossoneri and is seen as the long term replacement for Christian Abbiati. Marchetti began his career at Torino and has been in impressive form this season.IMScouting’s network of scouts in Italy describe Marchetti as a "reliable goalkeeper between the posts, has great reflexes and has very good one on one ability. Needs to improve his aerial ability in order to really become a top goalkeeper. Season 2008/2009 is his first season as a first choice goalkeeper in Serie A with Cagliari and he made a great impression with some excellent performances.
"Marchetti is contracted to Cagliari until the end of the season and to Albionleffe until the end of the 2012/2013 season. Video evidence of the custodian can be seen on the video below.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWpEQbzb9To&eurl=http://www.imscouting.com/global_news_item.aspx?id=1534





MEXES IS WANTED AT SAN SIRO

Olivier Jouanneaux, agent of Roma’s central defender Philppe Mexes, spoke to calciomercato.com about the situation of the player after the rumors about Milan:
"What I can say is that the relationship with Roma is very good. I speak to Daniel Prado on the phone every week, and not just about Mexes but also other things. This confirms the excellent relationship I have with the club. And I do not see what interests or means I could have to put pressure on the director Giallorosso and the club for the transfer of Philippe to Milan and other clubs".
"I never put pressure and I have not looked at another club. Things that have been suggested by an Italian national sports newspaper. Since Philppe arrived at Roma there have been constant rumors on his likely transfer. Even last year it was said that he would go away and instead it is 5 years that he is at Roma. I do not know where these assumptions come from because they have no foundation.
To clarify: neither the player nor I have had any kind of relationship with the Lombard club. To conclude: "The arrival of Philippe to Roma was made by mutual agreement with the club, as was the contract renewal. So, all that happens will be with the joint agreement of the Giallorossa leadership, as it has always been.
