(GSM) – Milan president Silvio Berlusconi has dropped a serious hint Filippo Galli will be their new coach.

The current youth team tactician has been linked with the hot seat at the San Siro for a while and Berlusconi has now practically announced Galli will replace Leonardo.

“Those at the top of the Milan hierarchy consider an experience with the youth sector to be very important for a Coach,” Berlusconi told a group of sponsors.

“It also helps to form a manager in a psychological sense.”

The club president also pledged to supporters he would not be scaling down his transfer targets too much.

“In a moment of economic crisis that affects the world and particularly Europe, I cannot afford exorbitant spending.

“Milan will be reinforced by four or five youth team players, but seeing as I have supported this club since childhood, I won’t pull back if there is the chance to buy a real champion who can give us that step up in quality.

“By champion, by the way, I mean someone like Ronaldo.”
