Milan cool Berbatov talk
Galliani plays down suggestions of a swap involving Huntelaar
Adriano Galliani has refused to expand on rumours linking Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov with a move to AC Milan as part of a swap deal involving Klaas-Jan Huntelaar.
Bulgaria international Berbatov has been linked with a summer switch to Milan after a fitful two seasons at Old Trafford following a £30million transfer from Tottenham.
Reports have suggested Sir Alex Ferguson is ready to cut his losses on Berbatov at the end of the season, with Milan rumoured to be preparing a bid.
Though Berbatov's agent has played down speculation of a deal, there have been suggestions that Milan could include Dutch frontman Huntelaar in the package.
Huntelaar has struggled for regular football since leaving Ajax for Real Madrid, and then Milan, and has often been linked with a move to United.
However, while Rossoneri vice-president Galliani admitted the Premier League could be an option for Huntelaar in the future, he played down any imminent swoop for Berbatov.
Nothing to add
"When Klaas was at Real Madrid, he had the chance to go to England, Germany or Italy, and he chose Milan," Galliani told the Italian media. "But England could be a future solution.
"I have read about our interest in Berbatov and I have nothing to add."
Meanwhile, United winger Nani has outlined his intention to ease some of the goalscoring burden on Wayne Rooney during the final weeks of the Premier League title race.
Nani said: "I want to score more goals. We need more players to score because, if you've got just one player scoring, then that is bad for the team.
"I'm playing well on the training ground and that's why I play every week in the games."
