AC Milan seems determined to clear off any accusation towards them concerning the corruption scandal in Italian football. After repeatedly being "attacked" by the media, the Milanese club wanted to give an official answer towards the journalistic try to discredit their image. Moreover, the press release may be considered an unprecedented attack towards the Italian media.

"AC Milan rebel against the organized media's campaign against us. There are entirely arbitrary theories of a 'Milan system' by misinterpreting snippets of phone conversations, bending the wise words of FIGC Commissioner Guido Rossi and trying to turn a cordial meeting between Adriano Galliani and Rossi into an interrogation. The final aim of this campaign of misinformation is manifest: they intend to transfer the investigation and its verdicts elsewhere, struggling to generate a concert of malicious suggestions to those who must analyze and decide", said the statement.

In the same time, it shows that the media have intentionally ignored some of the decisions already taken by the magistrates: "Nobody from these newspapers has tried to transcribe, nor even probably to read, the original information provided by the Lazio police in their investigations so far. The evidence acquired thus far reinforces the investigative theory that Luciano Moggi has absolute power over the entire football system. It's an even more alarming situation due to the exclusivity of this power, next to which there is no counter-balance able to contrast it".

Nevertheless, the president of Milan will meet Guido Rossi by the end of this week, to discuss, more than likely, his future in the Italian Football Federation. He is currently the president of FIGC, but also of AC Milan. Due to this conflict of interests, he is most likely to resign. A final decision towards this issue will be made public by the end of the week.
