Silvio Berlusconi is convinced
Chinese investors who want to buy 70% of AC Milan are serious
and have major financial assets and so has OK'd continuing talks
to weigh the size and quality of their investment plans to
relaunch the team, sources said Tuesday after a summit with
Fininvest managers who are following the dossier and awaiting
complete documentation on the members of the consortium.
Berlusconi said earlier Tuesday that he was concerned about
the prospect of talks with a Chinese consortium for the sale of
a majority stake in AC Milan could drag on too long.
"I'm worried that the negotiation could go on too long,"
Berlusconi told the Radio Radio station.
"A number of big Chinese companies have expressed an
interest in the ownership of Milan, companies that also have
State stakes and they are talking about what percentage to take.
The second thing is that those who replace me must make major
investments to put Milan on top in Italy, Europe and the world".
Berlusconi added, for the fans who are worried about
Milan's future: "we've had a marvelous period, we have
celebrated many victories and, with 28 international trophies
won, I think we can keep up this attitude, and find solutions
that make Milan a protagonist in Italy, Europe and the world".
