Oddo (AC Milan and Italy) joins Bayern Munich on loan

[gruenweisscfc]

Munich - German champions Bayern Munich are set to sign Italy defender Massimo Oddo from AC Milan, the club reported Thursday. Right-back Oddo will join Bayern on loan for one year from Milan subject to a medical examination, Bayern said on its website.

Oddo, 32, joins fellow Italian Luca Toni at the German side. The deal comes a day after Bayern sold left-back Marcell Jansen to SV Hamburg for a reported 8 million euros (11.8 million dollars). Oddo has played 31 times for Italy and was a member of the 2006 World Cup-winning squad but was not named in Italy's squad for Euro 2008.

milan really need to start signing some young players or that teams gonna fall apart in a couple of seasons. dida, nesta, cafu, maldini, pirlo, seedorf, favalli and gattuso are all getting on a bit. i think cafu and maldini will qualify for a bus pass soon

Am surprised at the state of AC really not like them to be so poor they really need to get there act together or it could get even worse for them.

always thought Oddo was a good player. his move to Bayern surprises me though.

but they have ronaldinho pato and kaka all in the forward line so i cant see things get worse.dida is now the 3rd choice keeper.cafu has left and nesta bonera zambrotta maldini and favalli may be old but the defence shouldnt concede much this season and the midfield is usaully solid so i can see things really looking up for milan this season.
