"Russonero"
Few days ago, Silvio Berlusconi was referring to the ability to cede Milan, the club he owned for 25 years, and it is an important step for the Italian giants.
With national pride, and honor yourself, Berlusconi will not sell the whole or half ownership of Milan, as the first Arab state had proposed last year, but open to foreign investment partners It is entirely possible.
Accordingly, Berlusconi is listening to proposals from Russia about buying back shares in Milan, is the giant Fininvest Group (managed by the Berlusconi family) hold.
Specifically, the gas group Gazprom the world's largest, is under the control of the Russian government, is promoting the process of investing in Milan 25-30% by purchasing shares of this team.
Zenit each had success a few years ago, so Gazprom proved eager to continue to invest in world football. Reputation and history of Milan magnanimous as to increased attractiveness for Gazprom.
As the financial situation of Fininvest and personal autonomy are no longer (continuously increasing arrears), to sell 25-30% stake in Gazprom Milan Berlusconi is the best way to save everything. It's also a chance Milan reform after the disappointing season.
Besides financial problems, adding another reason to consider concessions Berlusconi third Milan for Gazprom: the head of the Russian government - directly managed unit gas corporation, is Vladimir Putin. That Putin is? A very close friend of Berlusconi.
Berlusconi has refused to sell full ownership to Prince Milan UAE, Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan (Manchester City boss, who almost bought Kaka), as well as Taci - Albania billionaires, but there is no reason to not accept his friend Putin's Gazprom to invest in the San Siro.
Then save Mr Berlusconi is not only their own financial situation, but "Russonero" (pun from Russia with Rossonero) was also actively involved in the transfer market.
And yet, Paolo Scaroni, Eni CEO Energy Group (Italy) - Milan also has foot in BLD, have an intimate relationship with Alexei Miller, Gazprom Chairman. There are too many factors to give Gazprom "married" with Fininvest, Milan turn into "Russonero."
