«Il Cavaliere», «il Presidente», «Berlusca» or simply Silvio has left us. Berlusconi is not just a businessman and politician. No, with him is no longer the man who definitively changed Calcio and led Milan to the top of the world.
Berlusconi led the Rossoneri for 31 years. There were always voices that he was an Inter fan when he was young. He himself has always denied this. In 1986, he took over financially stricken Milan from Giuseppe Farina and celebrated his presentation as president as only he could. He was flown in his helicopter into the Arena Civica di Milano, where numerous Milanisti were waiting for him. He focused. He loved that.
A title almost every year
Berlusconi quickly led Milan to the throne of the world. After three years he has already won the championship and the European Cup. His coach then? Arrigo Sachi. The tactical freak started the revolution with the Dutchmen Ruud Gullit, Marco van Basten and Frank Rijkaard. Even after the Sacchi era, Milan continued to be successful. Further national and international titles were added, especially under Fabio Capello and Carlo Ancelotti. In total, Milan won 29 titles under the auspices of Berlusconi.
The multiple prime minister of Italy has not only changed the history of Milan forever. He came into the lives of all Italians. Perhaps not all voted for him, and some were embarrassed by his sometimes inglorious behavior. But he was respected to the end.
Everyone listened to their word
Through his media empire and the world of football, Berlusconis has achieved an unparalleled status. His influence was immense. At his peak, he even allowed himself to judge the Squadra Azzurra. «Dino Zoff was unworthy, he behaved like an amateur. You can’t leave Zidane unmarked like that,” he said of Italy’s latest defeat to France at Euro 2000. A few days later, Zoff pulled out. When Berlusconi spoke, all of Italy listened. Until the end.
His word has carried weight in football in recent years, especially in Monza. In 2018 he took over the club out of friendship with his eternal companion Adriano Galliani, who comes from this city. In just a few years they took the team from Serie C to Serie A and almost sensationally to Europe this year. Monza is the last of his countless life’s works, for which all of Italy thanks him forever.
