"If only! I have always liked Adriano a great deal and think that he would be at ease at Milan among all the Brazilians we have here," smiled Berlusconi.

"Milan are a huge family and being here would give him the opportunity to express himself at his best, just as Ronaldo already has."

This is not the first time that the thought of Adriano wearing the Rossoneri jersey has crossed the front pages, but Berlusconi takes it a step further.

"With what happened recently I'm not sure if it will be possible, as I called Massimo Moratti to organise a friendly match so Milan and Inter could celebrate their success together, but we haven't been able to find a date yet.

"Having said that, I repeat that I would very much like Adriano at Milan if we could reach an agreement with Inter."
