It is now official: Fininvest has finally bought the Italian club Monza. After days filled with media speculations, confirmation came from Monza’s leaders and there is already a statement that formalizes the return of the Berlusconi family to football.

“Fininvest S.p.A. has closed the purchase of 100% of the shares of the Sports Association Monza 1912. The Assemble of the Association has approved the new Administrative Council, composed of Nicola Colombo (President), Paolo Berlusconi, Adriano Galliani, Roberto Mazzo and Danilo Pellegrino. Subsequently, the Council appointed Adriano Galliani as the Managing Director of the club, “the statement said in the media.

This means that Silvio Berlusconi returns to the world of football shortly after he eventually sold his beloved Milan. Now the new mission is to raise Monza from Serie C to Serie A, which would be a success as big as trophies with Milan.
