Looked a class act at Milan, always thought he was a bit of a rough diamond at Spurs. Would anyone have him back, who would he replace, Parker perhaps?

Sandro, Dembele and KPB would be fookin lethal in midfield I reckon!

Tottenham lead Manchester City in race for Milan star
Former Tottenham and Portsmouth midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng is set to leave AC Milan - and he could be on his way back to White Hart Lane.
talkSPORT told you last month that Manchester City have been tracking the Ghana international, who has shone for the San Siro side, but sources in Italy now claim Milan are willing to part company with the 26-year-old at the end of the season, opening the door for a return to the Premier League.
Tottenham are believed to be leading City in the chase to sign Boateng, but they will have to fork out at least £12.5m to bring him back to north London.
Boateng struggled during his initial spell at Spurs - he managed seven league starts between 2007 and 2009 - and only seemed to fulfil his potential while on loan at Portsmouth in 2009-10.

I have to admit to being completely ignorant of European football. I haven't followed him at Milan. I assume he did pretty well there though?

I would definitely take him back. As you say KPB, Dembele & Sandro would be awesome.

Yeah, has worn their no.10 shirt for the past 2 seasons. Seems to play more on an AM role I think. Not sure if he is what we require but I wouldn't be adverse to having him back, top player.

He has been messed about by Allegri but I'd pass on him, he's a good player but Zlatan made him look a lot better than he actually is.

His first season at Milan was great, second was good too (the goal against Barca, wow), but now he is a shadow of himself, shows lack of awareness, technique.

too attacking imo, we need 1 more cm that can really pass, not another AM force to play out of position, which is precisely one of the reason prince left us in the first place.

And you think Defoe wouldn't? :sorry:

He wouldn't last, Zlatan would drop kick him in training.

Can you imagine Zlatan accepting his shoot on sight policy? It would be great viewing!

He's had injury problems apparently this season. And one shouldn't be blinded by some of his spectacular goals (like the one vs Barca) as they're not weekly occurrences. Not totally convinced about him.

He has grown up and blossomed into a decent player, but I don't want him back though especially at the price they will ask as he is just not the answer to our creative problems.

He's looked good for Milan. I'd have him back but he can leave his Wacko Jacko routine in Italy :)

I was glad he went and I've seen nothing about him to make me change that view, I don't think he has done anything much at Milan to justify us wanting to re sign him, his goals and assists tallies are pretty poor and I would imagine if he had offered that much in his general play they would be looking to keep him not sell him
