Milan hint at Boruc bid

Boruc: Wanted man

Milan have insisted a £10 million price tag would not put them off bidding for Celtic keeper Artur Boruc.

Boruc is one of the most highly regarded keepers in Europe and has been linked with a move away from Parkhead.

Celtic are in no rush to sell with Boruc tied to the club until 2011 and it is likely they would demand a high fee for the Pole.

£10 million has been quoted as an asking price for Boruc and Milan who are likely to be in the market for a new keeper, have not been put off by such a figure.

"Boruc is an excellent goalkeeper,” Milan general manager Ariedo Braida told the Daily Record. “He has been outstanding for the past few years for Celtic in the Champions League.

"We are going to lose Dida and maybe our No 2 keeper Kalac too so we need someone new.

"Boruc's valuation is high - £10 million is a lot to pay - but I cannot exclude anything and it might still be possible to sign him.

"Soon the transfer window will be open and then we will see how the market is."

Setanta readers' comment of the day

“I wish we didn't sell the guy. Phil is the definition of loyalty and I'm sure he'll end up with legendary status at your club as he did ours. There's not many players like that these days, and I'm glad he's playing an important part for another great side. Peace.”
