Inter Milan legend Giuseppe Bergomi says Paolo Maldini is wrong to have rejected a return to AC Milan.

Maldini announced this week he would not be joining Sino-Europe's new regime.

“I disagree with my friend Paolo Maldini," Bergomi told Il Giorno.

“In his place I'd have accepted the offer of the new Milan owners. Someone like him would be teaching everyone after a month at the club!

“Take [Francesco] Totti, take away all the useless talk and he's still doing good things for Roma.

“And Alessandro Del Piero? Just go and talk to Bianconeri fans, they dream of Alex being President or something similar. And they're right to.

“If the Nerazzurri's Chinese owners make me the offer that the Rossoneri's Chinese made to Maldini, well I'll accept straight away."
