Ronaldo’s farewell to Real Madrid didn’t include any fond words for coach Fabio Capello. The World Cup’s all-time leading scorer left Madrid for AC Milan on Tuesday, returning to Italy’s Serie A for a reported â,¬7,5-million transfer fee. The 30-year-old Brazil striker joined Milan until 2008 — the same length as the remainder of his contract at Madrid.
Argentina striker Hernan Crespo signed for former club Inter Milan on Monday, leaving English champions Chelsea. ”I’m very happy to be back,” Crespo said. ”I love Italian soccer and the Italian country. Returning to Inter is a personal choice, a return home.” The 31-year-old forward signed a two year-deal on a free transfer.
