Milan president Silvio Berlusconi has claimed there is a "good chance" his club will sign Arsenal forward Emmanuel Adebayor this summer.
And the Italian prime minister suggested Dutch legend Marco Van Basten will replace Chelsea-bound Carlo Ancelotti as coach next season.
Adebayor nearly moved to Italy last summer before agreeing a new contract at the Emirates. But his performances this season suggest he should have gone - and now the Serie A giants are willing to give the Togo striker a second chance.

"There is a good chance that we can get Adebayor," Berlusconi claimed.
Van Basten played for Milan between 1987-93 and the 44-year-old former Holland boss is now out of work after resigning as Ajax coach earlier this month after failing to qualify for the Champions League.
With Ancelotti expected to confirm his appointment at Stamford Bridge imminently, Berlusconi added: "Ancelotti is one of the family, but if he doesn't stay, we'll hire a young and emerging trainer. For me, Marco is like a son. He is a piece of Milan's history."
