Milan Don't Need To Buy Any Players – Silvio Berlusconi

Milan president Silvio Berlusconi will anger his own fans with the statement he is in no hurry to sign any new players.

The Rossoneri have been linked to various players this summer, but no major signings have been made as pre-season training starts today.

“We have chosen to look forward, aiming on the renewal,” explained the club’s president to the Gazzetta dello Sport.

“However, our squad remains formidable and therefore I foresee a good season. The fans need to remain calm: it will not be a defeatist mentality for Milan.

“We have great champions like Pato, Ronaldinho and [Andrea] Pirlo, and many young promising players.

“No one in Italy, from the technical point of view, has a squad as strong as ours, not even Inter.

“The objectives? Milan, as always, starts off to win everything, even though there are years which are more lucky or less lucky.

“Reinforcements? The problem is not the names. If on the market some doors open up, someone can arrive, otherwise we’re fine like this. We must not buy at all cost.”

The fans have voiced their disappointment over Milan's transfer efforts through the low sales of season tickets, with reports from Italy stating that the Rossoneri have sold under 1,000 tickets, whereas their rivals Inter have sold over 24,000 so far.
