Milan president Silvio Berlusconi admits Arsenal forward Emmanuel Adebayor could be too expensive for the Serie A giants.The Rossoneri have made the Togolese star one of their prime striking targets and vice-president Adriano Galliani confirmed last week that they had asked Arsenal to name a price for Adebayor.
Samuel Eto'o and Didier Drogba were also named and Milan could now look concentrate their efforts on the Barcelona and Chelsea strikers, after Arsenal reportedly placed a huge £30million price on Adebayor's head.
"I don't know whether he will wear our jersey," said Berlusconi when quizzed about the Gunners targetman.
"He costs a lot."
Galliani reiterated that Milan would not pay 'exaggerated sums' for any striker.
"From Monday we will re-start our thinking about signing a striker," he said.
"We will do what is possible, but it is not easy.
"We are hitting against economical aspects, and that is fundamental - we can't spend exaggerated sums."
Galliani ruled out the chance of selling some of the clubs best young players to raise funds.
"For the moment we are not selling, and we have blocked all operations involved young players and sending them to play elsewhere," he said.
