Berlusconi promises “a bus of prostitutes” to Monza if they beat a big rival

The Italian Silvio Berlusconi, owner of Monza, a team recently promoted to Serie A, promised his players during Christmas dinner "a bus full of prostitutes" if they beat a big rival in the second part of the season.

The new Milan of ‘Il Cavaliere’, at 86 years old, is now Monza, a team that he has elevated to the top based on a checkbook and that is fourteenth in the Italian domestic championship, nine points above relegation .

The euphoria for the good season, revived by the new coach Raffaele Palladino after a hesitant start by Giovanni Stroppa, whom he fired after five games, led the magnate, leader of the Forza Italia political party, to make a promise to his players over dinner Christmas that took place this Tuesday night.

"We have found a new coach, who was the selector of our Primavera team (under-19 team). He is good, friendly, kind and capable of stimulating our boys. I also want to give an extra boost: ‘now Juventus, Milan, etc. are coming… and if you win with one of these great teams I’ll have a bus full of whores put in your dressing room"said a Berlusconi who has just returned to the Senate nine years after his expulsion for his sentence to four years in prison for tax fraud.

The video circulated quickly through social networks and is one of the most viewed at the moment in Italy.

It is not the first time that Berlusconi has attracted all the spotlights for statements since he was at Monza. Already in June, when the historic rise of the team he manages was consecrated, he let himself be carried away by the joy of the moment and dared to dream of his new football project: "Now for the ‘Scudetto’ and the ‘Champions’".
