Signing of the summer if it goes ahead, by some distance. 

I get why Juve are leaving him go, but this is the best centre back in the world we're talking about here, selling him to a direct rival for 35m, in todays market, is very surprising. They could, and probably should, have gotten so much more

Looks as though Milan have signed Lucas Biglia too from Lazio. On paper, they will have a very good line up this season, should be one to watch

Milan are 12s to win Serie A, seems generous.

Auba could be signed yet.....

I still think Juve will win it again (not biased at all haha), but Milan 'should' be up there. With Italy getting 4 places for CL qualification again, I think they'll really give the league a go. If Aubameyang signs, that price will drop considerably

Ah yea it would be foolish to think Juventus won't win it, but surely Milan at 12s with even €25 e/w on it would give you some interest over the course of the season!

Given that they'll probably keep spending regardless, I think I'll go off and back them!

Oh I agree completely, at that price they're well worth a few quid each way, especially as you say, they don't look finished in the transfer market. Looking at what the competition have done so far, it looks even better.

Juve are doing their bit (although the Schick deal looks like it might fall through) so you'd expect them to win it again, or at least put up a serious fight. Roma have sold some key players, you'd trust Monchi to buy well though. Napoli have been very quiet so far, they seem focused on keeping what they have at the moment. Lazio have just lost their captain, and Keita Balde could soon follow, 2 big potential losses. Fiorentina have been a disaster, the club is a mess at the moment, and it could get worse with Bernadeschi potentiall leaving. And Inter have been, well, Inter, so no threat there.

Read a few places that his son is sick and he wants to remain in Italy. Why that means he couldnt have stayed in Turin I don't know but I'm sure it was part of his decision making and possibly Juve showing some sort of compassion to allow the transfer to happen to a direct rival.

End of the day with all these deals, nobody apart from those directly involved really know. The past few seasons have highlighted as much - Twitter, Sky News, ITK's all being caught out to varying degrees for their absolute bolloxolgy.

I'm shocked by the Bonucci deal, an absolute bargain in today's market!

Would be good to see Milan back challenging for the league it's been way too long.

Di Marzio saying Sampdoria made an enquiry for Jack Wilshere 

Blaise Matuidi looks to be on the move to either Juve or Man Utd, Mino Raiolo is his agent so he's definitely off somewhere

A bargain by PL prices but Italian TV cash is not at the same level.

For all his flaws at least he was interesting, not something many footballers can be accused of these days.
Even his distasteful homophobic comments underlined his craziness as he had a dig at 'metrosexuals' too. An Italian footballer, preened to within an inch of his life, with bad 'designer' tattoos and diamond earrings, complaining about metrosexuals.LOL
