General Director Luciano Moggi said "We need to sell a striker and that would be Miccoli. In a couple of days time we will know whether he will go to Benfica or Aston Villa."

This is surprising because only yesterday David O'Leary said "I'd be very shocked if anyone came in because we really haven't even got a name."

Miccoli is 26 years old, plays upfront and if Baros comes would he really be needed?
