Gilardino valued at €50m by Parma

Parma have warned off Chelsea and other potential suitors for Alberto Gilardino by estimating their star striker’s value at more than £34m (€50m).

Chelsea, AC Milan and Real Madrid have been linked with the 22-year-old, whose 22 goals this season make him joint top scorer in Serie A alongside Livorno’s Cristiano Lucarelli.
