Today was the final day of the transfer market, and that meant sporting directors from all over Italy crammed into the ATA Quark Hotel in Milan and scrambled to make last minute deals before the 7 pm deadline. Some directors found what they were looking for, others did not. If you missed any of the transfers from today, visit my Twitter. I updated all the most notable transfers today and you can go back and read what transpired. It was a busy day, so let’s see who were the winners and losers in today’s mad dash in Milan.

WINNERS

MILAN

The arrival of Ibra was enough to make Milan fans excited. But Robinho too? That was just icing on the cake. Milan went from easily having the worst transfer market to easily having the best. They managed to sell both Klaas-Jan Huntelaar and Marco Borriello, making enough money from both transfers to autofinance the Ibra deal or even the Robinho deal (their choice). What was the best news for Milan though? Finally getting rid of Kahka Kaladze and his ridiculously large contract where he made millions to sit in the stands and watch games. Lots of optimism from a Milan point of view

MARCO BORRIELLO

Yes, he left Milan, but that was a winning choice. If he had stayed he would probably have been Ibra’s backup and wouldn’t see much playing time. That would have led to unhappiness and probably bad performances. The move to Roma reignites his morale and allows him to get consistent playing time. Roma finally get the big physical presence up front they need, and he’s not 150 pounds overweight. Roma fans should just hope his on-again/off-again relationship with Belen Rodriguez that’s all over the Italian gossip pages works out, or else he may get depressed and start playing bad.

LUIS JIMENEZ

Every summer we hear about this poor guy’s story and how he can’t seem to get out of his seemingly never-ending contract with Lega Pro side Ternana. He gets demoralized and threatens to leave Italy and never play here again and how he’s going to bring legal action against Ternana, but in the end he always winds up on loan at some club. And he we go again. New boys Cesena decided to give him a go this time around, and have obtained the Chilean’s services on loan with an option to buy in June for 8 million euro. If they don’t exercise that option, be prepared to hear Jimenez’s story all over again.

SAMPDORIA

Yes, they didn’t have a good transfer campaign at all, but today they fall in the winner’s column for not selling Giampaolo Pazzini. There were rumors that Juventus would make one last desperate attempt for Il Pazzo but that really would have made Sampdoria look really stupid. The blucerchiati’s main goal during this transfer window was to keep hold of Palombo, Pazzini, and Cassano and they managed to do that. Mission Accomplished.

PARMA

Tomasso “Fat Man” Ghirardi is really serious about making Parma compete for a Europa League spot. Today the Gialloblu signed Udinese midfielder and Italy international Antonio Candreva out of nowhere. Candreva will fit in nicely in Parma’s midfield, and caps off a spectacular transfer campaign by the Gialloblu this summer. This year’s squad is the closest thing Parma fans will get to the 90’s Parma that they admired for a decade.

LOSERS

JUVENTUS

Marotta went out looking for a big physical center forward today. He didn’t manage to find one. He tried to get Borriello and agreed to terms with Milan, but Borriello himself canceled the deal saying he didn’t want to go anywhere on loan, it had to be a permanent sale. He was looking for another central defender, and found Leandro Rinaudo. Rinaudo is not bad but not good either. If you asked me 2 years ago that Rinaudo would be a Juventus player one day, I would have laughed. It’s ok, I still laughed when I read it today. Marotta also got left back Armand Traore from Arsenal, but he’s an unknown quantity at the moment. Look on the bright side, at least Zebina is gone.

BRESCIA

Speaking of Zebina, terrible signing from Brescia. A few days ago Brescia owner Corioni said a player like Zebina would never come to Brescia. Well he was mistaken. Brescia’s defense is their weakness, and instead of signing someone that could help they sign Zebina, who is at Brescia to waltz around the pitch and collect his paycheck. What’s even more sad to say is that Zebina is actually better then any of Brescia’s current defenders. At least games involving Brescia will have goals.

DONI AND MARCHETTI

Both goalkeepers basically knew that if they did not go anywhere today, they would be benchwarmers all season. Result? They will be benchwarmers all season (or until January at least). Doni apparently was really close to signing for Fulham, but their wasn’t enough time to complete the deal. Marchetti had some interest from abroad but the only concrete offer came from Roma, who offered to take him on loan with an option to buy. Cagliari refused, and Marchetti stays put. So basically, Marchetti goes from playing at the World Cup to being Cagliari’s third goalkeeper, all because of a stupid argument with Cellino. This is going to be a long four months for Marchetti.

GENOA

Genoa were not a loser during the whole transfer market, because they had a spectacular transfer market. Today they were losers though, because Preziosi kept hinting at bringing in a surprise signing at the last minute but he never did. Usually when Preziosi says he’s going to sign someone he’s telling the truth, but this time he decided to lie. Unless that surprise signing was Kaladze, who may be the worst surprise signing ever.

The SuperCoppa is this weekend and that means one thing: Serie A is a little over a week away! Although the transfer market hasn’t been very eventful, clubs have still made moves to improve their squads. So I thought it would be good to see what your starting eleven your favorite club could put out on the first day of the season. This isn’t definite at all because of injuries, coaching decisions, and other factors, but it gives you a good idea of what you can expect. Also, I think the only team that will put out a starting eleven with all players from last season is Cagliari (although they have a new manager in Pierpaolo Bisoli). So let’s go through the 20 sides:

Even though his agent Mino Raiola says nothing has been signed yet, Mario Balotelli will definitely be a Manchester City player by the end of the week. The soon to be 20 year old left with Inter for their USA tour (where they will play Manchester City in a friendly on Saturday) just to make it not obvious that he’s leaving. In the training sessions in the USA so far, the team has been working with the ball while Balotelli has been training alone in the gym and the pool. Balotelli will reunite with Roberto Mancini, who introduced Balotelli to Serie A two years ago. Love him or hate him, you have to acknowledge that Balotelli is a talent and personally I hope he fixes his head so he can finally realize his potential and become a star for Italy (especially at a time when Italy needs young talents). Am I hopeful? Not really. Balotelli is nuts. More news after the jump.

-Tomorrow the Serie A calendar will be unveiled. The same format will be used as last season (no seeding system) so it’s possible that the big teams could meet on the first day. Also the game times are a little different this season. Any team involved in a Champions League match during the week will play on Friday. Saturday stays the same with two games, one anticipo at 6 PM and a posticipo at 8:45. Sundays have changed. There will be a lunch time game like the EPL has at 12:30 pm (meaning earlier wake up times for US fans watching calcio, which stinks), followed by the other teams playing at the normal 3 PM and then the posticipo at 8:45 pm. The Lega will also experiment with a Monday night game like the EPL has, and the experiment will be used only 6 or 7 times this season. When a Monday night game is to be played, it will be the Saturday 6 PM anticipo which will be moved to the Monday slot. I don’t like this new schedule. Why did they have to change a good thing. They complain about Italian attendance records, yet they now expect people to forget about lunch on Sunday and go to a soccer game instead. Never get between Italians and food!

-Looks like Italy goalkeeper Federico Marchetti and Cagliari have decided to go their separate ways. While it’s always been known that Marchetti has had many clubs interested in him, it always looked like he would stay in Sardegna. However Cagliari owner Massimo Cellino didn’t like an interview Marchetti gave to Gazzetta dello Sport where he said he was open to leave. Cellino said Marchetti should have talked to him first. So, Cagliari have officially announced that Marchetti is on the market, and if he leaves, the starting goalkeeper will be Michele Agazzi and not Chievo goalkeeper Stefano Sorrentino as some media outlets reported. For Marchetti, the most viable option right now looks like a move to England, seeing as most Italian sides have already taken care of their goalkeeping situation.

-Wondering why Sampdoria’s transfer campaign has pretty much sucked so far? Well sporting director Sergio Gasparin said their mercato depends on what happens with the Champions League qualifier. Pretty stupid, because if Samp do qualify for the Champions League group stage, that will occur on August 25th, allowing Gasparin only 6 days to to find some players before the mercato closes on the 31st.

-Gianluca Zambrotta is an optimist I guess. He says that Milan even without a few other signings is competitive already. I don’t know Zambrotta, when your entire midfield is over 30 it’s pretty hard to be competitive…

-Parma sporting director Pietro Leonardi has come out and said that Parma looking for a player with fantasista qualities. He said that Sebastian Giovinco, Hatem Ben Arfa, and Alessandro Diamanti all fit the bill and Parma is looking to get one of the three.

-Speaking of Giovinco, it was reported today that Bari has surpassed Parma and is now in pole position to get Giovinco. I don’t know how true that is, especially since Bari owner Vincenzo Matarrese came out today and said they will only sing Giovinco on loan and nothing else. They don’t want to pay money for him.

-Fiorentina will apparently close the deal with Liverpool to bring fullback Emiliano Insua to Florence before the end of the day. Let’s see if that happens.

-Eder, dubbed the “Kaka of Serie B”, was Serie B’s top goalscorer last season and is looking for a move to a bigger club. According to reports Lazio and Empoli have been discussing a deal for weeks and apparently it is very close to being done. Lotito has to spend those 18 million euro he got for Kolarov on something…

-Inter are looking to use the money received from the Balotelli sale (and maybe eventually Maicon’s) to bring in two of Bentiez’s pupils: Mascherano and Kuyt. While it is almost fairly certain that Mascherano will be joining the Nerazzurri this summer, the Kuyt deal will be a little more complicated, but could be made easier if Liverpool wind up singing Royston Drenthe.

-Roma really want West Ham and Switzerland winger Valon Behrami. They apparently want him on loan with an option to buy, but West Ham isn’t interested in that type of deal. So Roma may have to give the London club some players, and they might decide to hand over Brazilian goalkeeper Doni and young Italian striker Stefano Okaka, who spent the second part of last season in London on loan with Fulham. I wonder how the Roma fans will react to an ex-Laziale playing for them.

-Luca Cigarini was once touted as the new Pirlo, but hasn’t really lived up to the billing. Napoli spent a load of money on him last summer but once Mazzarri showed up he decided there was no room for Ciga in his starting 11. So Cigarini wants to move on, and Sevilla are rumored to be interested (where he would form an all-Italian central midfield pairing with Tiberio Guarente, and the two played together at Atalanta). Sevilla have supposedly put in an offer that is deemed too low for Napoli: 300,000 euro for the loan and then the option to buy for 6 million at the end of the season.

-Newly-promoted Brescia have done next to nothing on the transfer market, only signing goalkeeper Matteo Sereni so far. Manager Beppe Iachini announced to the press today that for Brescia to achieve salvation the squad needs some reinforcements. Brescia are looking at bringing in West Ham’s Alessandro Diamanti. That would be a great move, but I don’t know if Diamanti would accept a move to relegation zone team.

-Mauro Camoranesi has been linked with a move away from Juve since May. First it was thought he would go to Olympiakos, but the Greek club couldn’t finalize the deal. Now it seems newly-promoted La Liga side Hercules CF is interested in the Italo-Argentine, and they are willing to offer him two year deal worth 1.5 million euro a season.

-And finally, Nicolas Burdisso. The Argentinian defender desperately wants a permanent move to Roma, but the Giallorossi really don’t have that much money to spend. In addition, after Totti’s words to the press about Inter, they are not going to be the easiest to negotiate with. It’s almost a month until the start of the Serie A season, and Burdisso’s future is still unclear.

On behalf of the Italy Offside, I’d like to congratulate Ronaldinho on his pregnancy. He looks about 4 months in. Can’t wait to see him walking around the pitches of Serie A come August. Also, I’m extremely happy that the World Cup is over. Why? Because now we can completely focus on Serie A again! I’m in full Serie A mode now and can’t wait for this upcoming season to get started.

Various Serie A news from the day:

- Happy Birthday Antonio Cassano! Fantantonio turns 28 today. It sucks that he wasted 3 years of his career and is now 28 years old and has won nothing. (OK so technically he did win the 2006-2007 La Liga title) Speaking of Cassano, funny new commercial with his fat alter ego.

-Inter’s pre-season ritiro started today and Rafa Benitez had a press conference. He talked about Inter’s objectives for the coming season, the lack of air conditioning in the press conference room, and how he forgot how to drive on the right side of the road. He also said he learned Italian when he played for Real Madrid’s youth team in the Viareggio tournament many years ago.

-Benitez said he wants to get to know Mario Balotelli and see him in training before deciding whether he needs to be sold or not. Click here for pictures of Balotelli’s vacation.

-Last thing about Inter, we don’t really know the futures of Beppe Baresi and Lele Oriali. Baresi was Mourinho’s assistant the past two seasons, but with Benitez bringing along Mauricio Pellegrino to be his assistant, Baresi’s future is unknown. Apparently Marco Branca and Massimo Moratti have conflicting ideas. When Branca was asked about Baresi he said “he will coach one of the youth teams” and when Moratti was asked about Baresi he said “Baresi will remain the assistant”. Oriali on the other hand doesn’t want to be the intermediary between the team and the front office so he will most likely close his rapport with his former club. Rumors are he may join the Manchester City staff with old friend Roberto Mancini.

-Parma showed up to pre-season ritiro today with 32 players. They better be careful that’s almost as many as Lazio! Sporting director Pietro Leonardi has some work to do and sell some players. 32 players is way too much for a club only playing in one competition next season (two if you count the Coppa Italia).

-Looks like Cagliari owner Massimo Cellino was watching Uruguay’s games during the World Cup. He’s interested in signing Penarol midfielder Egidio Arevalo, who had a good tournament.

-Lecce operated a trade today, getting 22 year old fullback Davide Brivio from Vicenza and sending French striker Alain Baclet in the other direction. Brivio is an Italy U-21 international.

-Genoa and Lazio are still fighting it out for Ghana and Portsmouth midfielder Kevin Prince-Boateng. Genoa is said to be the closer of the two clubs, as they have come to terms with the player but not with Portsmouth. On the other hand Lazio have come to terms with Portsmouth but not with the player.

-Lazio renewed Christian Brocchi’s contract today until 2012. The former Milan midfielder has been a stalwart in Lazio’s midfield since his arrival and got a much earned renewal.

-And one last Lazio note. Apparently midfielder Christian Manfredini got on the bus today to go to pre-season training and was told to get off! Manfredini obliged and it looks like he will be sold somewhere in the coming days. Isn’t that such a nice way to tell a player he doesn’t have a future at the club?

-A few days ago Fiorentina sporting director Pantaleo Corvino said he has signed a player with a last name ending in the letter C. That player is Celtic and Poland goalkeeper Artur Boruc, who didn’t leave with Celtic on their summer tour and was made an official Fiorentina player today (pending a medical). Boruc is said to have signed for close to 3 million euro and this raises the question whether they will be keeping Sebastien Frey or selling him to make some extra cash.

-New Chievo boss Stefano Pioli held a press conference today and said Chievo’s objective next season will be to play “beautiful calcio”. Let’s hope he’s telling the truth, because Chievo haven’t even been remotely interesting to watch since their first miracle season with Delneri back in 2001/2002.

-Palermo, after signing Polish international defender Kamil Glik, have signed another defender, Milan youth product Matteo Darmian. They have acquired him in a co-ownership deal and Darmian, last season at Padova on loan, will get his first taste of Serie A. This deal was made official today but was kind of official yesterday when Palermo listed him as one of the players departing for Palermo’s pre-season training camp. Oops.

-Simone Padoin, who I consider one of the most underrated players in Italy, was being followed by many clubs after Atalanta’s relegation but Padoin put a stop to those rumors today saying he is loyal to Bergamo and will stay with the Orobici to help them return to Serie A immediately.

-Number of moves Napoli has made on the transfer market so far: 0.

-Sampdoria is preparing for their Champions League filled season and they have announced they will make 3 more signings: a fullback, a winger, and a backup goalkeeper.

-There were rumors that Milan wanted the services of Genoa’s Greek international defender Sokratis Papa-how ever you spell it-opoulos. Today Milan director Ariedo Braida said that was all talk and won’t happen. Basically he’s saying: STOP BOTHERING US WE HAVE NO MONEY.

-Palermo want Liverpool’s Brazilian midfielder Lucas Pezzini and admitted they have made an official offer. Too bad Pezzini won’t be on the same team as Pazzini, that would have confused so many announcers.

-Kudos to Bologna’s new president Sergio Porcedda, who is already making moves to bring in reinforcements. He said that they will a top striker before the summer ends and already has deals in place to bring in defender Andrea Esposito and goalkeeper Cristiano Lupatelli.

-Everyday Bari manager Giampiero Ventura says the same thing to the press: “I would like Andrea Ranocchia back for the coming season. I also would like Giovinco, he would explode here.” I’ve seen this reported every day for at least the past 4 days. Let’s see how long it goes.

And finally, all over you see many “World Cup best XI’s”. Well, I’ll be different and post my “World Cup Worst XI”:

Buffon (Marchetti), Zambrotta-Cannavaro-Chiellini-Criscito, De Rossi-Montolivo, Pepe-Marchisio-Iaquinta, Gilardino.

BEST XI OF FOLLOWING THE ITALY OFFSIDE EVERY DAY:

So June has come and gone and July has arrived. The transfer market is now officially open, and pre-season training camps either have started or will be starting very soon. The non-EU regulation hasn’t gone down very well with the Lega Calcio, and the Lega is calling for it to be revoked or at least postponed to the winter transfer market. The FIGC is not budging, and saying that the ruling will stand. The mercato has been on the quiet side, basically because most teams have no money to spend. Speaking of teams with no money to spend, it looks like the Sensi family is leaving Roma this week after years of rumors that they no longer had the money to run the club. The Sensi family will leave and Unicredit bank will take control of the club. More news and notes after the jump.

-Lazio looks close to signing one of the World Cup’s most impressive players, Kevin-Prince Boateng of Ghana. The German-born midfielder was followed by Genoa too but the Rossoblu seem to have given up and left the player to Lazio, who have agreed to terms with Portsmouth but still need to agree to salary terms with the player. Not a bad signing for Lazio I want to see how he will fare in Serie A.

-Lazio made one signing official today: Australian international Mark Bresciano on a free transfer. The midfielder signed a three year deal worth 1 million euro a season.

-Roma are having trouble finding the money to sign Nicholas Burdisso permanently, and if they don’t find a deal soon they may try to get Benfica’s Brazilian center back Luisao. Burdisso’s agent said he’s waiting for Roma to sign his client but for the time being it looks like he will start pre-season training with Inter.

-Michele Paolucci, who probably hated the last 6 months of his career wilting away on the Juve bench, is being followed by Bari. Bari have to make a deal with Siena, and they are offering winger Antonio Langella.

-Giuseppe Rossi is looking to move back to Serie A and today a surprise link was reported: a return to Parma. It seems the Gialloblu are seriously looking into swooping for their former youth product and bringing him back after his more than successful stint back in 2007. It’s a hard deal though, because of both his transfer fee and his salary.

-Looks like Inter are asking the following question going into next season: Balotelli or Maicon? Reports say that Moratti only wants to sell one of the two this summer, not both. I guess it will come down to Inter and Benitez to decide. Both have similar transfer fees (Moratti said 40 million euro can take away Balotelli and Maicon’s fee is between 30 and 40 million) and both players wouldn’t have a hard time leaving. I guess we’ll have to see who they choose.

-Luca Cigarini didn’t have the season he expected. Napoli spent 12 million euro on him and under Donadoni he started but when Mazzarri came along he became a bench warmer and his season was full of highs and lows. Cigarini is still a promising player and it looks like Villarreal is interested in obtaining his services. Cigarini’s slow style of play would probably fit well in the Spanish game. A couple of weeks ago Cigarini was also linked to Espanyol.

-Although David Trezeguet is present at Juve’s pre-season training camp, he may leave before the month ends. Lots of teams are interested in the French striker’s services, including some MLS teams. Trezeguet may decide to try an American adventure.

-Edinson Cavani will be leaving Palermo, but he won’t be going to Inter. Why? Because Maurizio Zamparini says so. He said he doesn’t like how their directors work and he will be going abroad, most probably to Wolfsburg.

-Cagliari boss Massimo Cellino says that he has a star from the World Cup to sign for Cagliari’s midfield and his name hasn’t been reported in the press yet. He also said that Cagliari could try to bring back Roberto Acquafresca after a disappointing season at Atalanta and Genoa.

That day in late June has come again where sporting directors from all over Italy pile into the ATA Quark Hotel in Milan and try to resolve any co-ownership issues they have. They can either renew the co-ownership for another season, resolve it before 7 PM today, or else go to the blind auction tomorrow. Here is a list of all co-ownership deals that went on today:
