Marta Fascina reveals: "Silvio Berlusconi wanted Leao in another role"

Marta Fascina, the companion of Silvio Berlusconi, ahead of the match between AC Milan and Monza revealed in an interview with Corriere della Sera some behind-the-scenes information about the former AC Milan president who passed away last June. It is no secret that Berlusconi always remained linked to the Rossoneri even after the club was sold: "Among past players his favorite è was Franco Baresi, while of the current team, I would say Leao and Giroud". 

" He would have liked to see Rafa being employed as a center forward, moreover he was also very fond of him. Of Giroud he appreciated the soccer skills but reminded him to cut his beard", Marta Fascina revealed.

Coaches and the system of play: "He's always been close to his coaches, from Sacchi to Palladino, via Capello and Ancelotti. He said he himself was a part of his coaches, heard them daily and dispensed advice. He was not one for building from the bottom, preferring the goalkeeper’s relay to the attackers".

The relationship with Zlatan Ibrahimovic: "He would be excited about this new managerial position: I am also convinced that Ibrahimovic will doà well at Milan. Silvio has always considered Zlatan a friend, as well as a charismatic leader and a dragger".
