Milan confirm "The Beast" interest


Italian giants and Champions of Europe, AC Milan have confirmed their interest in Real Madrid's Julio Baptista. Baptista is slated to join back with the rest of the Madrid squad who are in pre-season in Germany. He is on an extended vacation as he was participating in the Copa America for Brazil.

Milan officials have confirmed today that they are interested only on a Loan deal for the Beast with a buy option at the end of the year. The news spread that Real would entice Milan to sell Kaka if it is a part deal with Baptista. But Milan President said " We met Real and they have to wait for another 4 years to get Kaka".

Real might be interested to offload Baptista this term, but would prefer a permanent deal to a loan deal as they might be stuck with the same predicament next summer. Baptista is getting the option for first team football and teaming up with Brazilian counterpart striker Ronaldo.
