AC Milan transfers chief Ariedo Braida admits they're more likely to sign Samuel Eto'o than his Barcelona teammate Ronaldinho.

"The truth is that we don't need the Brazilian as much. We do not care about rumours, just facts," claimed Braida.

"Eto'o is a great player and there is always a chance for him to join us. We realise it is a difficult deal and we will have to pay Barcelona lots of money.

"Zambrotta admitted he would like to play for us - this is really important. However, we are at the beginning of negotiations and there is a huge difference between our offer and their demands. With time this margin will be reduced."
