Paolo Maldini has answered back to Silvio Berlusconi’s words, saying that if he does return he wants to be able to make his own choices and talked about some differences between the old & new Milan.
President Berlusconi said earlier this week that he doesn’t think Maldini is available to return to the club as a director because he now owns a football club in the US.
But the #3 gave his side of the story last night, saying that there is simply too big a difference of visions between the current management and himself for him to work for Milan right now. In a lengthy interview to Telelombardia, Maldini spoke about the problems of the Rossoneri and said that it the past the technical area, which is now almost solely controlled by Vice President and joint-CEO Adriano Galliani, was structured better.
“The current state of Milan? I would say that there’s a bit of confusion,” Paolo said. “The two CEO’s doesn’t not work. There is a lack of unity of purpose between Galliani and Barbra Berlusconi. A project is missing. It doesn’t help to have had five coaches in recent years, including three first-timers.
“Berlusconi’s said I’m unavailable to return to Milan? It’s true I am co-owner of Miami FC, but I have no role within the club. I’ve helped to find a director of sport and a coach. I live in Milan, not the United States, despite what people say. I have always tried to build my future based on myself and without asking for anything. I have never descended to compromises in my career.
