Real Madrid happy to offload Cannavaro to AC Milan

Real Madrid are ready to sell defender Fabio Cannavaro to AC Milan in the summer.

Milan want to take the 33 year-old back to Italy and Real management won't stand in the defender's way after a disappointing season in Spain.

Real know the Rossoneri want to sign the World Cup winner after his name was raised during negotiations in January that took Ronaldo to Milan.

The agreement with Getafe defender Alexis this week has added fuel to speculation that Cannavaro will be on his way back to Serie A at the end of this campaign.
