AC Milan: "Ronaldinho and Thiago Silva Are Not For Sale"

An official press release on AC Milan's official website has put the minds of Milan fans at ease.

Leading into the morning of the match with Panathanaikos in Detroit, rumors have heated up again about the futures of both Ronaldinho and Thiago Silva.

"A.C. Milan reconfirms that both players Ronaldinho and Thiago Silva are not for sale," is how the official press release read.

Ronaldinho's summer has been full of speculation, with Flamengo, Fluminese, Manchester City, Olympiacos, and West Ham United all very interested.

It was reported yesterday that Milan were set to offer him to the Los Angeles Galaxy, who were most interested in the Brazilian World Cup snub.

Dinho's compatriot, Thiago Silva, has been on the radar of Real Madrid all summer, with new manager Jose Mourinho seeming even more interested in the past few days.

Rumors flared recently that the Brazilian was considering a move, only days after saying on the club's website that he wants to stay and that Milan are his family.

Both players have been working hard for Milan. Silva is currently with the club in Michigan preparing for tonight's match with Panathanaikos.

He will then make for New Jersey with Milan teammate Alexandre Pato, as both have been called into the squad for Brazil's match with the United States on Tuesday night.

Ronaldinho is at the Milanello working to recover from a leg injury that has kept him out of all three of Milan's preseason matches thus far.
