Now we have the salad. Kaka was sold off to Real Madrid, Maldini stops Ancelotti to Chelsea and was complimented so far the only new additions are a few 17 - and 18-year-old for the youth team. The association was a non-coach, Leonardo entrusted with the task is mainly to keep his mouth to ask for any transfers and at the end of next season disastrous to take all the blame on himself. Regardless of the official statements of the Association of Superiors we speak of a veritable revolution: A former top club, one of the strongest brands in the football world is left to itself.

"Insurance, fuel and mechanic for Berlusconi's private helicopter (private expenses) cost per year as much as a three-family house in Trapani or a studio in St. Moritz."

First results already show up: After several weeks of renewed advance the number of season tickets is at about 400 Note well: In the first phase of the campaign season tickets have decided about 400 subscribers from 50,000 last season for a renewal of their place. A fact that prompted AD Adriano Galliani a few days ago to the phrase that the fans will understand the new situation and have the "most developed" ("più evolutive") understood them already. It is evidence already of some courage and say something about the relationship between Tifoseria and club management, when the visible protest against the fans lies, obfuscations and sinking of the once glorious AC Milan with the evolutionary backwardness of the fans is justified.

Well, I take off the jacket and not then we'll see on the facts. The owner of AC Milan Fininvest has also decided that the club may no longer write red numbers, the balance must therefore be at the end of each fiscal year in balance. The club is in itself so well, of course, nobody can be forced to sponsor a year with dozens of millions of euros a football club, whose image and Webewirkung obviously does not need more unassailable in Italy and no matter how disgusting scandal stumbling Berlusconi to to consolidate his power. AC Milan's Silvio Berlusconi, not divorce, even parties with half-naked 18-year-old in his villa, still relationship rumors about Naomi, can still occupying the Parliament with models, nor flights of "girlfriends" at public expense, nor prostitute harm become unnecessary now. And therefore proposes no more heart for the club, as its most ardent fan, he presented himself since the mid-80s, he has 20 years out with financial commitment to world class - and from which he received a priceless image boost has catapulted him to the undisputed leadership of the country. Now, as the sun anyway undisputed king abandoned the worthless hobby.

"Just to give you an idea. Berlusconi's annual cost for lawn care of his villas in line with what the average Italian family would spend time in the life of a property. 200 000 € "

But now we have crisis and we fans are asked to understand that the millions can not flow normally. . Ah, crisis in the years 2007 and 2008 referred Silvio Berlusconi personally € 330 million in dividends from its holdings - fruit of a win, in which the loss of AC Milan as the maximum of the depreciable tax profits emerged. Ridiculous profits in the rest, compared with total revenues of the empire. The flagship of the Berlusconi empire, with its shares in Mondadori, Mediaset, Mediolanum, Milan, Medusa, etc. is estimated at 10 billion euros. Anyway: The AC Milan is one of Fininvest, a conglomerate, which in turn is controlled by several holding companies:

Holding Italiana Prima (1)
Holding Italiana Seconda (2)
Holding Italiana Terza (3)
Holding Italiana Quarta (4)
Holding Italiana Quinta (5th)
Holding Italiana Ottava (8)
Holding Italiana Quattordicesima (14)
Holding Italiana Ventitreesima (23)

8 Financial Holdings also check the Fininvest, in turn, owner of AC Milan. The Holdings "Fine," "Seconda", "Terza" and "ottava" have a single investor, Silvio Berlusconi. This means a share of 63% of Fininvest, Berlusconi is so far the majority shareholder of Fininvest, who collects the most dividends. The other 4 Holdings ("quarters", "Quinta", "Quattordicesima", "Ventitreesima") control the other 37% of Fininvest. The "Quattordicesima" (14) has three equal shareholders, the three children with his wife Veronica contained in divorce, including the remaining 3 Holdings Berlusconi's children from his first marriage, Marina and Piersilvio. The last Veronica Lario is itself

(Source: Corriere della Sera 06/19/2009 , Corriere della Sera 04/05/2009 )

Mind you, I speak only of the Fininvest, not from the other assets, which has distributed the Berlusconi clan in the world between villas, real estate, stock ownership and financial investments.

Well, it is obvious that the children Marina and Piersilvio, consider themselves at the head of Fininvest itself, the loss of AC Milan as an unnecessary expenditure and this will diminish. Is pushed to an action already since two years, as the impact on the exchange market, are also evident since 2007. This is where the rumors come to a sale of AC Milan or a minority quota to "the Arabs" into the game, an agreement with the financial and real estate holding company of Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, known in England as "Big Mo". Appropriate contacts to sell a quota on AC Milan were in a subordinate clause of Ernesto Bronzetti, AC Milan's transfer market consul for Spain, indirectly confirmed, as reported on the sale of these Kakas:

"As for Kaka, was the hope that the Brazilians could stay at Milan, at the situation from a 27.05. born alive and in full development, the red and black society would have guaranteed fresh capital. "
"Per quanto riguarda Kakà, il che la speranza Brasiliano potesse restar nel Milan nasceva in quel momento da una situazione, del 27 maggio Parliamo, molto e viva in piena evoluzione, che avrebbe potuto garantir nuovi capitali alla società rossonera."
( Ernesto Bronzetti, 09.06.2009 )

Has been or will be actually negotiating with Rashid Al Makhtoum, Emir of Dubai and Prime Minister and Vice President of the United Arab Emirates, whose son at Palermo game with Galliani in the San Siro stadium was seen before the game even when grass circuit in the camera flashes. Connections exist between Al Makhtoum, after I had so frequently been pointed out: Another company in the Emirates, the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, already holds 2.04% of Mediaset shares and wants to increase this proportion. Looked in detail before the contract negotiations that the ADUG (Abu Dhabi United Group, real estate, and tourism) takes 35-40% stake in AC Milan, which are currently at 99.99% in the hands of Fininvest. A guaranteed by the BNP Paribas deal that would have flushed approximately € 400 million into the coffers of AC Milan. DC included one option would be to take another 600 million € for the rest of the club. Hence: € 1 billion should be the ADUG cost and still at AC Milan on 27 May be negotiated. New players, new stadium ...

Well, the deal would have been great for tax purposes Berlusconi and AC Milan could finally get a new stadium (style Emirates Stadium in London). Rumor has it that there are already plans for a multi-functional stadium in Milan, Zona Fiera, for about 80,000 visitors. Been presented, the project will be through the "Hydra Properties", one of the operational arms of "Big Mo", carried in the person of Sulaiman Al Fahim, the financiers of the deal and future investments would have organized.

The players that you are now called Kaka, Pato, Pirlo or Seedorf and their possible transfer have really against this background that no serious significance. Most as a symbol: the sale Kakas finally manifested on the one hand, the complete lack of Silvio Berlusconi at his former favorite toy, on the other hand it means also having a sale of silverware. In my opinion, means the transfer of Kaka is not that Berlusconi holds in times of crisis at the club and it does not sell to the ADUG - rather we see an erosion of capital, transfer of the proceeds to Fininvest (as now also monetary compensation for past investments) and the preparation for a complete withdrawal from the Berlusconi's AC Milan. A situation in which a sale will be accepted favorably: Many of the current expressions do in fact almost exclusively be interpreted that Berlusconi annoy the fans willingly and against his person wants to apply. And what would be slit ear Berlusconi because rather than with the opportunity to make even more money to the silverware.

"... It takes intelligence to understand historical moments. After 23 years of major investments, we rest from the 24th Then change the economic situation and perhaps we will again tackle larger projects. This is one of only 24 years of our lives with AC Milan. Milan is not for sale and is in the heart of the president Silvio Berlusconi. "
"... Bisogna avere l'i momenti storici capire intelligenza Tues. Dopo 23 anni Tues grandiflora Investimenti, ci si il 24esimo Riposa. Magari l'economia e poi si cambia torna a fare cose ImportantInformation. Questo è uno dei 24 anni della solo nostra Life of Milan. Milan is for sale il ed non è nel cuore del presidente Silvio Berlusconi "
( Adriano Galliani, 29.06.2009 )

Crisis? Sure, for us fans. It's not about any losses, these are for the Berlusconi family, probably less than the cost of the various parties with young girl bought in the Villa Certosa. The point is that Silvio Berlusconi, the club does not need more than spin-image and his supposedly so ardently for the club striking red and black heart feels surprisingly cold. I would only point out that the much vaunted financial hole with AC Milan, who made the last financial year 65 million euro loss that had to be "compensated" by Fininvest, of course, tax-felt made: Turning a 65 million invoice at a profit generate ends up holding after deduction of taxes, only 35 million loss. Berlusconi and then just include "only" 63% of Fininvest, ie of the 35 million it's only affecting about 22 million. Clear and obvious that one Kakà - had to sell urgently - at only 330 million in dividend income from an investment in two years. The poor man had indeed no other choice!

Everything indicates that Silvio Berlusconi is preparing for a retreat from the AC Milan and still fast on the occasion of his past investments to make money. For to sell his star players, the scandal is not even dared President Giusy Farina, who steered the club to Serie B and at most it was a name that he himself threw the furniture out of Milanello on the second-hand market.

Then we check again. But much reason for optimism, I do not see - the future is much more black than red.
