GALLIANI : "On the transfer market we are moving and I can say exclusively to Milan Channel that we signed the young Ghana player Dominic Adiyah. The agreement with the Norwegian club Fredrikstad FK is done. Now he needs the permission to come in Italy and we will register him on January 1st. He must naturally pass the medical visit and then he will be our player. We signed him because he’s a wide striker who can play instead of Pato and Ronaldinho. Our tactical setup has changed now, we needed a wide striker who could alternate himself with those who are already here and we made a move"
