AC Milan chief Ivan Gazidis has commented on the ambitions of RedBird Capital.

The American fund are taking over Milan from Elliott Management.

Gazidis said: “RedBird has great expertise in all areas of sport, particularly commercial, and fan relations.

"They are learning, they understand very well that football is different in the USA: they have experiences with Liverpool and Toulouse and they have to listen and learn for a while.

"They believe that there are many things that bring this environment to Italian football, and I do too: there are many things that we need to improve if we want to grow. The RedBird experience will change not only the future of Milan, but also of Italian football."

Gazidis also said: "The thing that interests me most is precisely the value of this project, which does not depend on individuals but on the teamwork of a well-cohesive team that can collaborate profitably.

"I feel the responsibility of having a project that can to work solidly, this is my first concern and my first responsibility as it always has been until now."
