The ex-Rossoneri defender believes the club’s latest acquisition, Brazilian Alex on a free transfer, represents a good piece of business but wants to see more new arrivals at San Siro.

Alessandro Nesta has lamented Milan’s lack of financial clout in the transfer market these days.

The ex-Rossoneri defender believes the club’s latest acquisition, Brazilian Alex on a free transfer, represents a good piece of business but wants to see more new arrivals at San Siro.

However, he is unsure of who Milan could realistically hope to lure to Serie A owing to their reduced monetary resources.

“Alex is a great player and it has been a good acquisition to get him,” Nesta told Goal.com. “But Milan need other players to reinforce the defence and the midfield.

“The problem Milan have is linked to a lack of economic power in the transfer market. The economic situation in Italy does not help either.

“Only a few years ago Milan could spend €100m without any problems but now that isn’t possible anymore.

“Montolivo’s injury means the club has to look for a replacement but I don’t know who they can go and buy.

“It depends on the money they have available.”
