Genoa tells Real Madrid that Milito not for sale

Soccer Betting Lines

11/20/2008 - Genoa, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Genoa president Enrico Preziosi claims he has rejected an approach from Real Madrid for striker Diego Milito.

The Spanish champions are desperate to boost their striking options after losing Ruud van Nistelrooy for the remainder of the season through injury.

But the Argentina hot-shot, who scored 51 goals during three seasons in La Liga with Real Zaragoza, will not be leaving the Stadio Luigi Ferraris for a return to Spain.

"Real Madrid came for Milito and there was contact with the Spanish club," claimed Preziosi. "But I responded to them and I simply said that Milito was our striker and that he wouldn't be leaving Genoa."

Milito has been in stunning form for the Italian side this season, scoring 10 times in just 11 appearances for the club he joined in the summer.
