Berlusconi says AC Milan takeover talks on track

AC Milan president Silvio Berlusconi is comfortable with the Chinese group he's about to sell the club to.

Berlusconi says he's satisfied with the progress of talks.

“There are still negotiations. I confess I have to meet our directors, who are working on the deal, tomorrow [on Tuesday], so I can't give you a precise answer [on their progress] at this point," he told Telelombardia.

“What can the Milan fans expect? That their President Berlusconi makes a correct choice, and that it's a choice that guarantees them owners who are committed to making funds each year to ensure AC Milan are the new protagonists of Italy, Europe and the world.

“I think that would be a fitting end to 30 years of management. We met a dozen groups wanting to take over from us at Milan, but we discarded them one by one because we felt that none of them would offer sufficient guarantees for the future."
