AC Milan president Silvio Berlusconi has talked about the future of want away Brazilian striker Pato. Berlusconi confirmed that Pato has promised to return after 2 or 3 years in Brazil.
“After 26 years in paradise we decided to take a 3 year long break. We have to put a stop to spending large amount of money. Galliani is in Brazil right now but his mission is not to spend money but to return home with money.
“However, Over the next 3 years, we will create a young squad that will last us at least 10 years. In addition we will also sign a champion player every year. For instance, I would rather sign Mattia Destro than Pablo Osvaldo. Simply because he is older than the age limit that we have set for our squad. As i said We will need 2 or 3 years to create a young and competitive squad.””
“Drogba and Balotelli ? Didier Drogba is 34 and too old for our youth policy, While Mario Balotelli doesn’t convince me. Primarily because of his personality.That being said Mattia Destro is one player that I would like to buy for Milan. ”
“We decided to sell Pato to the most prestigious club in South America – Corinthians.That’s because Pato promised us that he wants to return to Milan in 2 or 3 years.Flamini to Napoli? I have never heard anything about that”, concluded the Milan president.
