The new era of Milan has begun. This morning, as reported ‘The Gazzetta dello Sport‘, the head of the RedBird Capital Partners fund, Gerry Cardinale, has signed the contract for the acquisition of the club Red-black. The announcements should arrive between this afternoon and tomorrow and will mean a new and important change for the future of the club Red-blackwhich in 2018 passed from the hands of Li Yonghong to those of the Elliott fund. RedBird, like the previous owners (who will continue in the club with a 30% share, according to ‘The Republic‘), is an American fund based in New York, whose turnover is around 6,000 million euros. The cost of this operation will reach 1,300 million, and it is not the first of the fund in the world of sports.
