Former Arsenal and West Ham United midfielder Freddie Ljungberg could be on his way to Italy.
This is according to the Swedish international’s agent, fellow Swede, Klas Elefalk.
Elefalk revealed yesterday that he had been receiving calls every day about the availability of Ljungberg from interested Serie A sides that are very keen to buy him.
Elefalk added that there were at least five clubs who, at this stage, appeared extremely keen.

He certainly was good for Arsenal. If that Ibramahovic plays for Inter is it? Perhaps that is one club looking at Ljungberg.BesTalentScout August 15th, 2008 06:31
must be Milan..............another old fart for the old folks' home.............DOLRGPII1 August 15th, 2008 07:01
Yeh, Champions Inter Milan.Giorgio August 15th, 2008 08:02
I do not believe that any Italian club would be interested in Ljungberg. Maybe in Serie B.This guy is way past his prime, eveyone knows that !!

Or we might be looking at some B-rated clubs in Italy like Torino, Udinese, Sampdoria........etcGiorgio August 15th, 2008 10:05
Actually Torino might be a bottom-half Serie A club, but definitely not Udinese and Sampdoria, both of which regularly finish in the top 6-8 and qualify for UEFA cup.RGPII1 August 15th, 2008 10:50
<snicker> I guess AC Milan, Roma and Lazio are a Series B clubs. <snicker> So says the press.onelovesoccer August 15th, 2008 17:22
no way, this is a PR stunt so that the MLS will actually pay him what he wants. he is coming to the MLS, but he is asking WAY too much and by stating that Serie A clubs want him, he can justify his asking price.onelovesoccer August 15th, 2008 17:25
the MLS needs to be VERY careful with guys like this. he isn't going to put THAT many more butts into the seats but is still asking for a salary that would make you think so. players like Beckham, Henry, Blanco are good to get because they have MASSIVE names, despite their age. While Ljungberg is a great player, he just isn't well known enough to be worth the investment.SoccerwayHooligan August 15th, 2008 17:31
Beckham is good but a media star as well, Henry shouldn't be mentioned in the same breathe as a Mickey Mouse League like the MLS.SoccerwayHooligan August 15th, 2008 17:37
Ljungberg did not realise his potential with West Ham because he got injured, a broken rib. He was team captain. I'd like to see how great the idiots who criticise him would do in the same games.onelovesoccer August 15th, 2008 19:25
well you better get pretty use to it...haha
