Berlusconi phones Fassone to explain his words
Berlusconi’s yesterday declarations caused a lot of noise in Italy. Harsh words coming in a time when AC Milan is going through a difficult period.
Calm after the storm. Or rather, after the outburst of Silvio Berlusconi, welcomed with some astonishment from the parts of Via Aldo Rossi. Yesterday, according to reports from today’s edition of Tuttosport, the former rossoneri president phoned Marco Fassone to clarify the concepts expressed in the chat published by Il Corriere della Sera.
RELATIONSHIP – Berlusconi, who openly criticized coach Vincenzo Montella, his management and transfer market choices by the new ownership, wanted to speak directly with current CEO Fassone, with whom he met several times during the negotiations for the sale of AC Milan and with whom he continued to be in periodic contact even after closing. In short, the relationship between the two has always been great, that is why the cavalier’s criticisms surprised (a lot) the new plenipotentiary Milanese.
EXPLANATIONS – Former president Berlusconi explained to Fassone how some concepts were pronounced in an informal situation, trying to throw water on fire. Among other things, the accusations of the former president came in a particularly complicated time for Milan. The timing, in short, was not so good. However, after clarifying on the phone, the “crisis” seems to have been retracted … until the next gibe.
