The French international is considered by many the France leader the player that can decide the game by itself.

Of course Ribery is also one of the most hunted players with Real Madrid and Barcelona the big favorites to sign him. Ribery has stirred controversy when he refused to sign the contract extension last year and declared that his dream is to play in Spain for Barcelona or Real Madrid. But it looks that the things have changed now and Ribery has signed a contract extension until 2015.

The 27 years old winger declared that he feels good at Munchen and he always regarded Bayern as one of the biggest clubs in Europe. He also spoke about Real Madrid coach, Jose Mourinho, who is a keen admirer of his abilities.

Since 2007 when he joined Bayern Munchen, Ribery has scored 42 goals in 116 appearences. Ribery is currently suspended by FFF but the player insisted that he is eager to return to action with the France squad.

The Rossoneri have secured the services of word class players like Ibrahimovic or Robinho while Inter have not made any important acquisition. Ibrahimovic arrival at AC Milan is seen as high treason by Inter fans and officials. Over time players like Seedorf, Pirlo, Ronaldo, Vieri arrived at Milan after playing for their biggest rivals Inter and Kaka move to Inter would be the best revenge.

Kaka did not make the best impression at Real Madrid as he was more injured then fit and Real Madrid could be tempted to give up on his services. Mourinho already has some backups for that position and considering his good relation with Moratti there could be some chances for the transfer to be done.

On the other hand if we consider the player high wages and Inter new policy regarding transfers the possibility is still low. Also Kaka‘s devotion for Milan fans would be a major obstacle.

Anyway Inter president Massimo Moratti declared that despite being an admirer of Kaka’s abilities he believes that the transfer has small chances to succeed.

Robinho‘s transfer sum at Manchester City has beaten all the records for Premier League. The transfer sum was around £32.5 millions and if we consider also the players wages the sum reaches a very high amount.

The Brazilian superstar failed to confirm at City and was loaned at Santos for the second part of the last season.

The 26 years old forward signed a four year contract with Milan and the transfer sum was around £15 millions but the sum may rise depending on performances.

Milan gave up on Huntelaar who was sold to Shalke and Boriello who was loaned at Roma to make space for the Brazilian.

Milan will have a trio of Brazilians up front, with Ronaldinho, Robinho and Pato, and if we consider also Ibrahimovic then we can talk about one of the best attacking force in Europe.

Now the football betting sites consider them as the second favorites to win the title in this Serie A season.

The Rossoneri are trying to stop Inter dominance in Serie A and to become that feared Champions League team from few years ago.
