Luca Toni

Bayern Munich striker Luca Toni is set for an imminent return to Serie A in January as Milan, Roma and Napoli queue up for his services.

According to Il Corriere Dello Sport, the hitman is on the verge of turning his back on the Bundesliga club after falling out with coach Louis van Gaal. Toni skipped training on Wednesday and it appears he has been left out of the squad by his coach.

The squabble relates to an interview Toni gave Rai television where he claimed his relationship with van Gaal was strained beyond the point of repair.

Speculation of an imminent move has been rife, both in Germany and Italy. A number of reports have claimed that Toni is desperate to return to the peninsula. Roma are said to be interested in him, but there is a problem over the striker's €3million per season wage demands.

Napoli chief Aurelio De Laurentiis has hinted that he is keen on Toni, while Milan would have to cash in on Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, if they are to make a move for the veteran hitman.

There is also some Spanish interest. Villarreal and Valencia are both rumoured to be after the Italian.
