Marco Fassone said today that Milan would still be looking to sign new players during the summer transfer window, even if the club is tossed out of the Europa League.

It’s good to hear him say that a few new signings would make their way to the San Siro, even if Milan get screwed by UEFA, but is this team a couple players away from being good enough for the Champions League? At the very least, if anyone departs (and from rumors, it could be a few) they will need to be replaced, and even if no one does leave, there are plenty of holes and a lack of depth in certain areas.

Anyway, on to the links.
