Serie B team Monza officially announced that the US venture capital company BLV has completed the acquisition of 80% of the team's shares. Galliani will also step down from Monza and no longer serve as club chairman. Galliani then gave an interview.
Galliani, how do you feel when you leave Monza?
"I was very excited. I left the club I loved since I was 5, when my mother took me to the stadium, which was my hometown team. I thank my new owner for providing me with the chairmanship, but I can't imagine myself not working in a club under the Berlusconi/Fining West Group."
More pride or sadness?
"Proud. A team that has never played in Serie A beat Inter Milan, Milan, Juventus and Naples. But it is equally proud to leave a stadium with a UEFA license. In 2018, we took over it when it was unavailable. In addition, the training center is one of Italy's top. Berlusconi invested 40 million euros in both facilities."
Allegri returned to Milan and are regrouping
"Alegri is a great coach. I have long been optimistic about him. When he was still in Cagliari, I repeatedly said to him: 'You have the leadership temperament of coaching Milan.' Because he is in charge of the great goal It also requires personal charm. Allegri was dressed well and played very well. In Gulit's words, he was a good guy. My dream was to win the championship in the first year like in 2010. They could do it, and I was optimistic. Milan's management made a very right choice. "
Now you no longer hold a position and can return to Milan's loyalty
"I have never stopped being a fan. Even during my tenure at Monza, I never restrained myself. I don't know what I would do on the stadium. I only realized when I saw the replay on TV that there were 31 years of Milan blood flowing in my body. "
Which stadium do you want to cheer on?
"A city like Milan cannot be without a large stadium that suits the times. The site can only be San Siro, which has perfect transportation for metros, roads and highways. Milan fans have been used to it for 100 years, and Inter Milan fans have also come for 80 years. San Siro can no longer be transformed. The only option is to force the team to play outside Milan. Every councillor should go beyond political logic and evaluate whether Milan has an excellent stadium or lose it more in interest. A beautiful frontier city like Milan cannot be without a world-class stadium worthy of its standards. The real heresy is not to demolish the San Siro Stadium, but to let Inter Milan leave their city."
