Italian giant AC Milan are considering a loan move for Liverpool’s Andy Carroll. To remain the star of Euro 2012 in liverpool

The England striker was discussed as the clubs talked over Alberto Aquilani’s return to Anfield after his year at the San Siro.

Pier Silvio Berlusconi — the son of ex-Italian PM Silvio, who is the Rossoneri’s billionaire president — had been impressed with Carroll, 23, during Euro 2012.

He said: “This is a new era for Milan.

“We will continue to get younger while maintaining the culture.

“Milan still has its superstars but I’d like to have Carroll at Milan. I was impressed with his strength and his headed goal against Sweden.”

Reports in Italy say Berlusconi is ‘seriously considering’ taking his son’s advice, especially as Carroll might not feature highly in new Reds boss Brendan Rodgers’ plans for this season.

But one story carried on the website of a TV channel owned by media tycoon Berlusconi Jnr hinted that Carroll’s £35million price-tag would make a permanent move unlikely at this stage.
