Milan legend…the mayor stopped the war in the president’s office

Follow-up: In February 2001, Georgian defender Kakhaber Kaladze launched his career with the Italian club Milan, and after 25 years he sat in the chair of the mayor of the Georgian capital, Tbilisi. When asked if this was the same Milan in which he played for 10 years, he replied: “It is clear that it is not the same, because Silvio Berlusconi (the former Italian prime minister and former club president) is no longer there. In general, Italian football has changed. When I joined Milan, it was the best in Europe, and the biggest stars were playing for Milan, Juventus, Inter, and even Parma, Fiorentina, Lazio and Roma. Now the technical level is lower.” Kaladze, who won the Champions League in 2007 with an Inzaghi double, added: “Pippo was amazing.”
