Jack Ma: ‘Who are Milan?’

By Football Italia staff

Jack Ma, head of the Alibaba Group, jokingly claims not to have heard of Milan, despite takeover talks.

It has been reported in recent days that Rossoneri President Silvio Berlusconi is in talks to sell the club to an unknown Chinese consortium.

There had been suggestions that Ma’s Alibaba Group was behind the bid, but sources close to the organisation denied that yesterday.

Now the man himself has spoken about the rumours, on Chinese social networking site Weibo.

“Am I buying Milan?” Ma considered.

“Is Milan the team from the Italian city Milano?”
