AC Milan CEO Adriano Galliani has moved to quash speculation the club could be interested in cashing in on teenage sensation Stephan El Shaarawy. Shaarawy has been one of the few positives to emerge from the embattled Milan camp amid their relatively disastrous start to the campaign, scoring four goals in six games including a brace against Cagliari in midweek. Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri has been under huge pressure but the 19-year-old Shaarawy rescued his side again on Saturday with a goal in a 1-1 draw away to Parma. And reports in the Italian media claim Manchester United are monitoring the player and that United manager Sir Alex Ferguson believes he could slot comfortably into the English Premier League. When asked about interest from the English giants, Galliani said: “We’re not in the selling market. He is only 19 years old and we’ve just extended his contract until 2017, so our fans can rest assured.”
