    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>West Ham have made an approach to sign Inter Milan's out-of-favour striker Adriano on loan. </p>

    The Premier League club were reported to have sent chief executive Scott Duxbury to Milan on Tuesday to start talks with the Brazilian.</p>

    Adriano has been told he can leave the Serie A champions and had already been offered to Arsenal, who turned down the chance to sign him.</p>

    ... now that you mention it, they did low-ball Ronaldinho. Before he signed with Barca, he wanted to be a Red Devil.</p>

    But it's strange though, there aren't that many Brazilian players in the EPL.</p>

    <font color="#000080">If West Ham don't get Adriano they have to sign someone else soon asap since it is being reported that Dyer broke his leg.</font>

    Furgy though was not ready to pay he big money, because Ronaldinho's brother would not let ManU speak directly to Ronaldinho.</p>

    Yea, I read another article as well just now, and it seems that they didn't agree on the fee with PSG. wow haha</p>

    Also Arsenal tried to sign him before his move to PSG. (when he wasn't a "star" yet)</p>

    Now imagine if he really goes to Chelsea...</p>

    I think I read Arsenal is the only team of the big 4 to have made money on the transfer market.</p>

    I read somewhere that he said he doesn't want to go on loan, not even Arsenal. (which they didn't want him in the first place)</p>

    I think he's good though and like petey said I'm wondering why Utd is not interested. </p>

    He wants a perm transfer. That would get him a raise and a bonus via the tranfer fee.</p>

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>West Ham officials were in Milan last night to negotiate the permanent signing of the Brazilian striker Adriano in what could turn out to be the most surprising deal of the summer transfer window.</div> </p>

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The striker's &pound;80,000-a-week wage demands are not regarded as a problem by West Ham, although they were still trying to agree a fee last night, with Inter hoping to receive more than &pound;15m for a player who has fallen dramatically down the pecking order.</div></p>
