Berlusconi: ‘Ronaldo to Juve terrible’

By Football Italia staff

Silvio Berlusconi says Cristiano Ronaldo’s move to Juventus feels ‘terrible’ as a Milan fan, although it is good for Italian football.

The Portuguese will move to the Serie A champions for a fee in the region of €100m and is due to be presented to the media at a Press conference tomorrow.

And Berlusconi, who was Rossoneri President for over 30 years before selling the club to Yonghong Li last year, admits he sees positives and negatives behind the iconic forward’s arrival in Turin.

“What effect has seeing Ronaldo going to Juve had on me? As a Milanista, a terrible effect!” Berlusconi told Il Giornale.

“But in truth, the arrival of an absolute champion like Cristiano Ronaldo in the Italian League is good news.

“That isn’t just for Juventus, but for all of Italian football.

“So I congratulate Juve, their directors and fans.”
