Silvio Berlusconi’s name will forever be associated with AC Milan, the football club he took over in the 1980s and with his immense wealth turned from a debt-ridden mess to a European powerhouse. Berlusconi ACMilan RIP Sports News
In this file photo taken on May 25, 2011 Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusaconi attends a television programme in Rome. – Silvio Berlusconi, the former prime minister who reshaped Italy’s political and cultural landscape has died aged 86, his spokesman confirmed to AFP on June 12, 2023.
Milan was a genuine passion for Berlusconi but his success as owner and the modern image he gave the club was a formidably effective communication tool that he used in the service of his business and political career. But success had a price, and in an era when players changed clubs far less frequently than they do now, Berlusconi was among the pioneers of the modern-day football business.
Milan won the Champions League two more times this millennium as their star-studded teams beat Italian rivals Juventus in 2003 and then Liverpool in 2007, although that was two years after they lost an epic final to the Reds on penalties after letting slip a three-goal half-time lead.
