Other shared stars
Ronaldo, Edgar Davids, Demetrio Albertini and Van Bommel are other players that appeared at some time for both clubs, although none of them moved directly between the two.
In 1997, the first deals were struck betweenAC Milan andFC Barcelona, and the practice has continued to the present day. In fact,Barça have shared players with Milan more than any other European club, a total of 13. Some came toBarcelona having turned out previously for the red-and-blacks, while others moved the other way.

From Milan to Barcelona

The first arrivals at theCamp Nou fromMilan were DutchmanMichael Reiziger and FrenchmanCristophe Dugarry in the 1997/98 season, the first underLouis van Gaal.Reiziger starred for the club for seven seasons, whileDugarry made considerably less impact. Another Dutchman arrived from Italy the year after,Winston Bogarde.

In 2001/02,Francesco Coco arrived on loan, but failed to win a regular place in the FCB defence and didn't win any titles in his time at the club.

From the Camp Nou to the San Siro

The first transfer in the other direction was that in 2002 ofRivaldo, who had delighted the Camp Nou for several years. In 2008, another Brazilian striker,Ronaldinho, departed in one of the highest profile deals in recent football history. He was joined byGianluca Zambrotta, who had been at Barcelona from 2006 to 2008.

The last player to leave Barça for Milan wasZlatan Ibrahimovic in the summer of 2010. On Wednesday he will face off against his former colleagues.
