And Il Messagero is reporting that the latest version of the Italpetroli restructuring plan (which has to be approved by 30 June) also provides that any proceeds from the eventual sale of the club would be applied against the rest of the debt, which would be rescheduled (again). http://www.borsaitaliana.it/bitApp/news.bit?target=NewsViewer&id=454386&isin=IT0001008876&lang=it Stock is back down more than 4 percent, giving up all of its gain of yesterday plus some.

AS Roma is more interested for some people. I wonder if Fisher will return now or Follieri still wants to buy Italpetroli..

There aren't a lot of options on the table. Either they work out a deal with Unicredit that buys them more time, or they sell an asset that generates enough to pay the debt that comes due in September, they allow Unicredit to exercise its option and take control of Italpetroli (and therefore AS Roma) or they work out a deal with a third party to take control of Italpetroli (and the club) and assume the debt. And as Gabriella has pointed out on a number of occasions, the football club isn't the only asset they could possibly sell; it is, however, the one that has generated the most outside interest in recent times. As to some of the stuff above, the Daily Star makes The Sun look like the New Yorker when it comes to factual accuracy. And if I were a Milanista, I wouldn't get too excited about CSKA Sofia. First, the decision has to be confirmed by UEFA; then, their appeal to the Federation has to fail; and even at that point it is far from clear that UEFA would give their place to a non-Bulgarian team. The standard procedure in such cases is for the next best-placed team in the same league to be given the place (but not any seeding earned by the expelled club); recall what has happened to the Serie A clubs who didn't have a UEFA license for ground or other reasons (e.g., Atalanta this season) and/or refused to play in the Intertoto.

They probably need that debt the Sensi's owe them quick. Spal to Chelsea? Remember he said I have to learn/imporve my English. Maybe he was hinting at that. Rijkaard is the most possible destination for Chelsea. Mancini is still on their list.. Unicredit keeps putting the pressure on the Sensi’s to sell Roma.

If they fail to improve on that next year, a certain group will definitely blame it on the SEnsis and their inability to take Roma to the next level. zack, i agree. the problem (if you want to call it that) is that Roma finished 2nd in the league and were the only italian team to at least get to the QF of UCL.

Buffett would be cheap with money and make Roma hugely profitable with buying undervalued assets. But then again, Gates could turn serie a into Roma's monopoly. And force clubs go buy players in "bundles"-- like you wanna buy Mancini, you have to buy Ferrari too, or else..... I am officially losing it.
