Silvio Berlusconi died this week at the age of 86, so we're republishing this Golazzo two-parter from 2020 profiling the man who helped make Milan such a formidable force in the 80s, 90s and 00s. In this first episode, Jimbo, James Horncastle and Gab Marcotti looks at how Berlusconi brought an elite level set-up on and off the pitch, making his three-time Champions League winners AC Milan the benchmark in European football.
