The other day, Berlusconi said that the current AC Milan is not much different from Barcelona. In response to this, Ambrosini pointed out: "Barcelona is a team from another planet, and they are different from us. The controversy between Real Madrid and Barcelona? I feel incredibly strange, because I do not think these controversies are very abnormal. Of course, I would not be surprised by Mourinho's approach, because we all know that he often uses this strategy, but it is quite unexpected for Real Madrid players and executives to act like this." From the news currently being circulated by Italian media, it seems that the prospects of Sidoof, Ambrosini, Nesta and others staying with the team after accepting pay cuts are very optimistic. Currently, the situation most pessimistic is Pirlo. Pirlo is unwilling to accept a large pay cut, and his agent Tinetti has already started negotiating with Juventus manager Marotta. Although Tinetti said that he mainly talked about Matri with Marotta (Tinetti is also Matri's agent), there is no smoke without fire. If Milan really sends away Pirlo in the summer, how will Ambrosini evaluate this? The Milan captain angrily said: "Pirlo has been the central figure of Milan for a long time. I think, when the team considers these matters, they should not only consider the present, but also an important factor - humanity!"
The media asked: "Captain, do you feel that the current situation lacks security?" Ambrosini angrily said: "We did not expect at all that the club would take so long to clarify our current situation. I think, maybe because so many players' contracts are about to expire, they adopt this approach. I think, these things will eventually end, but I really think that we all deserve such an answer."
Ambrosini also talked about many stars in the team: "Thiago Silva is our Messi? Yes, he is the best player in the team, just like Ibrahimovic. Ibrahimovic is a very good person, better than he looks, we all understand him, so there is no need for us to blame him for this situation (red card suspension), because he himself will make a judgment on himself. Ibrahimovic performed poorly in Europe? I don't feel that the pressure of the Milan Derby is smaller than that of the Champions League, so I think the criticism of Ibrahimovic in European competitions is a form of entertainment for the media."
Finally, Ambrosini used the following words to point out that it is unreasonable for Milan to abandon so many meritorious veterans at the same time: "A team having some core skeletons is a great advantage, of course, every team needs to build a new era on this basis. But this does not mean that we do not need change, there should be a balance between the two."
Yesterday, local time, Juventus officially announced that Piereo had renewed his contract. The world was amazed, as Piereo did not have to wander far from home in the twilight of his career like Raul. However, Piereo's renewal made many veteran players in AC Milan feel dissatisfied, because the contracts of many veterans in Milan, such as Nesta, Sidoof, Pirlo, Ambrosini, etc., will expire on June 30th, and until now, Milan has not discussed the matter of renewal with the players. Ambrosini finally got angry and openly criticized the team's actions in 'Milan Sports Daily'.
Next season, Milan aims to reclaim the Champions League title. The Rossoneri are actively seeking to buy Ganso. So how does Ambrosini view the team's recruitment? The Milan captain angrily said: "Let me tell you, one reason we lost the Champions League this year is because playing on such a poor grass field at San Siro greatly hindered us. So this summer, before buying Ganso, I hope we can hire a good gardener!"
Of course, Ambrosini is still very happy at the moment, because he may lift the championship trophy as captain this weekend, although it is not the first time, it will definitely be the most special time in his career. Anbu spoke: "Now we are in a very optimistic situation. In 2007 in Monaco, I lifted the UEFA Super Cup as captain, because Maldini was absent. But this time things will surely be different. Do I remember my early days in Milan? Of course I do, I remember everything, it's like a movie, I was a young man, with Donadoni, Albertini, Desailly, Boban... I was once crazy, I thought my idol Caniggia would also appear there (laughs)."
Some media say that the reason why these veteran players of Ambrosini refuse to accept pay cuts is the key to why their renewal negotiations have remained deadlocked until now. The media asked: "Would you be willing to earn less?" Ambrosini immediately became upset: "I think each of us is mature enough to clearly know what we should get and what we should not get. We are no longer in our twenties, we are not inferior, and we know the club's strategy. It's like a negotiation, everyone will assess their own situation, and that is correct."
