Milan pay tribute to 'unforgettable' Berlusconi

"Thank you, Mr President. Always with us," the club said in a statement, adding it was "grieving the passing of the unforgettable Silvio Berlusconi".
"Tomorrow, we will dream of new ambitions, create new challenges, and seek new victories. Which will represent the good, the strong, and the true that lies inside us, in all of us who shared this adventure of binding our lives to a dream called Milan," the statement continued.
Berlusconi reigned supreme at Milan from 1986 until 2017, during which time the club won 29 trophies, including five Champions League and eight Italian league titles.
AC Monza, the club Berlusconi and his long-standing business partner Adriano Galliani bought in 2018 after he sold AC Milan, said the former Italian prime minister's death left an unfillable hole.
"Adriano Galliani and AC Monza mourn the passing of president Silvio Berlusconi. A gap that will never be filled, forever with us. Thank you for everything president," the club said in a statement.
When Berlusconi purchased Monza in 2018, the club was in the third tier of Italian football. Berlusconi vowed to take Monza to Serie A and with the help of Galliani the team based near Milan reached the top flight for the first time in their history last season.
Monza will play in the Italian top flight again next season after finishing the just-completed campaign in 11th place.
