Eto'o linked with Milan
A representative of Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o says he is in contact with AC Milan over a possible move for the forward when his Nou Camp contract ends next year, the Gazzetta dello Sport reported on Wednesday.
"Eto'o is looking at Milan", the Gazzetta said in a headline, adding that the unnamed agent had "some time ago" gone to Milan to hold a "series of indirect meetings" with the Serie A giants.
"The rossoneri do not want to accelerate matters and want to avoid direct contact as FIFA regulations forbid the striker from having talks with other clubs until the end of 2009," the Gazzetta added.
"But Eto'o does not want to stay at Barcelona" and "is refusing any idea of extending (his contract) beyond 2010," the paper wrote.
According to AC Milan's vice-chairman Adriano Galliani, there is no need for a quickfire decision on Eto'o, the Gazzetta went on. "For the time being, Galliani has other priorities - but he does indeed have the question of Eto'o on his mind."
