Italian Serie A club AC Milan announced Wednesday to let go Australian keeper Zeljko Kalac and bring in Italian goalkeeper Flavio Roma from French side Monaco on a one-year deal.

"Milan thank Kalac for what he did during his time at the club and wish him the best for the future," said a statement on the club website.

Kalac, whose contract with Milan had been cancelled by mutual consent, joined Milan in 2005 but he was rarely their first choice option.

Milan have three other keepers on their books, but only Marco Storari is fully fit, with Dida and Christian Abbiati both fighting to recover from injury.
