“I bought it for the first time on 1 July 2015, at Milan. And then I bought it back in the same days of 2022.”
Adriano Galliani, the father of Monza in Serie A, the man of dreams together with Silvio Berlusconi, a few days ago on the occasion of the inauguration of the new Monzello sports center dedicated to the President, told a curious anecdote which we report to you in video .
“We’ve just won Serie A, I’m still in the locker room where the party started, in Pisa, and to avoid getting wet I’m leaving there. I pick up the phone and call Matteo. He is at Wimbledon, with the national team. You know we’ve just arrived in Serie A, I shout into my phone. He doesn’t say a word and hangs up. Thus began the negotiations that brought him here to us.”
The Condor lights up memories among those present of a Monza who, like all Silvio Berlusconi’s creatures, thought and acted big, combining dreams with the practicality of winning projects. Programming, objectives, strategy, results.
Berlusconi is no longer here but what is gone is only the physical Berlusconi, because the President’s soul is still here, more alive than ever. In a small group of friends made up of journalists, managers and football lovers, Adriano Galliani brings the life of a football that never fades. It is the one made of simple things, aspirations, desires, struggle and love.
Love for the shirt, love for the mother whose hand is still close to his as when she took him to see those colors that today he wears on his skin. Part of an identity printed in the soul.
Monza plans in small steps. With the knowledge that it is from small things that bigger ones are born
