AC boss could hand majority share to Chinese

Former PM Berlusconi appears eager to sell the seven-time European championship side

AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi could sell the club to a group with direct links to the Chinese government in a move that would see both Milan giants come under Asian ownership, reports in Italy said on Thursday.

Speculation surrounding the eventual sale of seven-time European champion AC Milan has intensified in the past year amid the club's struggle to keep the pace in Serie A, and its recurring failure to qualify for Europe.
