Simon Kjaer is no longer as immovable within AC Milan's squad. He is and will remain an important presence in the locker room for his leadership and charisma, but he has lost positions in the field hierarchy, as demonstrated by his appearance only in the final moments of yesterday's match in Bologna.
It's difficult to imagine he will leave in the last 10 days of the transfer window, but according to sources from Liguria, Genoa under Gilardino had attempted a surprising move. The former Atalanta and Roma player has come under the radar of the red-blue club, but according to today's edition of the newspaper La Repubblica, the Danish player has turned down the chance to join Gilardino's team.
