AC Milan chief Galliani doesn't expect big spending summer market

AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani doesn't a big spending summer market.

"We should expect a cautious, bloodless summer market with part-exchange deals but very little money moving around," he explained.

"We absolutely won't be signing a new goalkeeper for next year. Nelson Dida and Zeljko Kalac won us the Champions League and the World Club Cup so we will wait for Christian Abbiati to recover with those two between the posts."

There have been rumours in the Italian Press that Galliani has been in talks with other leading clubs and UEFA President Michel Platini over a European Super League.

"That's not true," Galliani said. "I have never spoken about it with Platini.

"It is just an early April Fools' Day joke. The rights for the Champions League have already been sold for the next three years in this format and so nothing can change for three years at least."
