Cassano joins Milan for holiday training

Italy forward Antonio Cassano has joined AC Milan for holiday training in Dubai ahead of a likely official move from Sampdoria when the transfer window opens in January.

A picture on Milan's website Monday showed Cassano posing with Rossoneri coach Massimiliano Allegri and two airline stewardesses.

Cassano hasn't played for Sampdoria since insulting club president Riccardo Garrone with a profanity-laced verbal tirade in October.

Sampdoria has apparently approved Cassano training with Milan.

While Milan already has Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Robinho and Alexandre Pato in attack, the club has been looking for another forward after Filippo Inzaghi was ruled out for the season following knee surgery.

Serie A resumes Jan. 6.
