AC Milan CEO Giorgio Furlani spoke to reporters ahead of the UEFA lunch with Slavia Praha, and he began by cracking a joke that he is ‘still here’.
Furlani’s name has been in the headlines a lot over the last 48 hours because of the investigation into Milan that is being conducted by the Milan Prosecutor’s Office and the Guardia di Finanza.
La Gazzetta dello Sport gave a detailed round-up of what we know so far regarding the raid on Casa Milan, while the brilliant Felice Raimondo picked apart the various cases that could be brought against the club.
On Tuesday night, Elliott issued their response to the notion that they are still in control of Milan, and a statement from RedBird along the same lines then followed last night.
Nonetheless, Furlani is present in Prague for the second leg against Slavia and he spoke briefly to the journalists present before the customary UEFA lunch.
“Hi everyone, I’m still here, as you can see. Tonight’s AC Milan match is important, we’ve never won the Europa League. We start from 4-2, but let’s pretend we start from 0-0,” he said.
