GOODBYE MOTTA: "PARIS IS BEAUTIFUL. EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE."

YES FOR 10 MILLION

PSG are pressing on Inter: in these hours, final attack on Romulo for post-Motta.

Juan and Kucka in black and blue.

Milan - Inter have not received an email from Paris yet.  But according to rumors from France, this is imminent.  Leonardo and Carlo Ancelotti want Thiago Motta and some voices suggest that they are organizing a press conference in the next few days because this deal is virtually being finalized.

It can happen And what about him? What would he say? This. "There are eight days left in the transfer window and anything can happen, but I've already spoken to president Moratti and Ranieri, we'll see. Paris? Yes, it's a beautiful city but I'm happy in Milan too. I'll always be grateful to president Moratti and to the Genoa president, who brought me to Italy in a difficult moment. The team and I have made history at Inter. Could I lose my place in the Italy team if I leave? I don't think so but as I said I'm happy at Inter, now we'll see."  And as he walked out, Thiago left us some more clues. "Have I chosen Paris? No, I haven't chosen anything.  Are PSG a possibility? Yes it is."

In three days or in June The proposal of PSG - according to sources close to Qatar Sports Investments which controls the French club and cited by RMC Info - is 10 million to Inter and 4.5 million to the player for the last six months of this season plus three more years.  One thing is clear: Inter consider Thiago Motta irreplaceable (or certainly at least more than 10 million) and even Ranieri has told this to the player.  But proposals from PSG remain strong so much so that this could be impossible to say no.  The truth is that there is not one player - on the market and available for the Champions League - that like Thiago Motta and that is why the club has no intention to find his replacement at the last minute.  So either PSG finalize its offer in the next 72 hours or Inter would close this door permanently and he will stay until June.

Romulo, Sahin and Juan It's clear that Branca and Ausilio are ready to find possible replacements for the player, but all of these players aren't exactly like Thiago Motta.  The Romulo idea remains alive, just like Fernando the possible loan for Sahin.  But the Vasco midfielder would fill the second non-EU spot.  Why second? The first will be filled by the Brazilian Juan Jesus who will remain at Inter and set aside the possibility of leaving for Novara.  The Internacional defender is now the first purchase of the year (3.8 million).  The second will be Kucka which will arrive in exchange of loans with Genoa and Muntari (before moving to Milan).  But watch out for last minute deals because Inter have been the specialist in this just look back at deals for Sneijder, Pazzini, Nagatomo and even Zarate.

Igor Lichnovsky, Universidad de Chile defender on playing in Europe: "I'm calm. I dream of playing in Europe and I'm working for it." Meanwhile agent: "Inter have been interested in him ever since they were following Eduardo Vargas. And now we are in constant contact."

O Jogo: Yesterday there was a meeting between Porto management and Guarin's agents to discuss offer from Juve for the player, an offer that was deemed to be unacceptable. Inter seem to be interested in Fredy Guarin and they're looking for a midfielder to replace the departing Motta. Porto want 15 million.

Motta's agent: "I believe that Thiago said is true: anything can happen. But at the moment there is only interest - he knows this as well as Inter - and there haven't been any real offers. We'll see that happens. One thing is certain: before his contract expires, we will have to meet with Inter and as of right now, we haven't heard from them."

Sky: Contract extension until 2013 is ready for Walter Samuel. He'll be around at Inter for another year.

Sky: Mariga is going back to Serie A on loan. Inter and Parma have sorted out problems and he will go to Parma on loan.

StudioSport: Inter have an offer of more than 10 million for Motta from PSG and they're deciding whether or not to accept it. Possible replacements are Romulo, Guarin, Kucka, Parolo in an exchange of loans with Cesena for Castaignos.

Sky: If Motta really leaves Inter, the Nerazzurri would think seriously about Sahin.

Sky: First contacts between Inter and Sahin have already happened. Sahin is considered a replacement for Motta and he could come on loan.

GdS: "Ranieri wants to keep Motta but there is a new name for the midfield: Miguel Veloso."

City president on Milan: "Mr Galliani and his advisers have developed a misplaced sense of confidence from their premature discussions with Carlos and his advisers. If they want to be a consideration in this transfer window they would do better to stop congratulating one another and begin to look at how they would meet our terms."

City president on Inter: "Inter Milan approached discussions with us in good faith and it's always a positive experience to deal with people with a professional approach."
