AC Milan edge closer to Rivaldo signing
AC Milan have all but completed the deal to bring Rivaldo to the San Siro, according to reports in Italy.
The Brazilian World Cup winner is set to join Milan after being released from his contract a year early by Barcelona in a cost-cutting exercise.
The 30-year-old was also linked with moves to both Madrid clubs, Real and Atletico, as well as Lazio and Newcastle.
But it appears he has settled on a move to Serie A, although he has been forced to accept a pay cut.
Milan are believed to have offered him a deal worth £3million compared to the £3.8million he was on at the Nou Camp.
Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti is confident they have got their man and is already predicting great things from the former World Player of the Year.
"Rivaldo is outstanding. With him it will be easier to win the Scudetto," Ancelotti told Corriere dello Sport.
"Now I have many champions and an attacking team. Someone will have to sit on the bench but I don't think that it will be a problem."
