NBA legend Lebron James, is an investor in RedBird Capital Partners and is a friend of Gerry Cardinale. He spoke to La Gazzetta dello Sport recently in an interview about the Rossoneri club. Here are the words of The Los Angeles Lakers' star:
"I love European football, and I think Milan is a truly special club both on and off the field. There is a great opportunity to bring Milan back among the top teams and top brands in European football worldwide. Milan is a world-class city, at the intersection of fashion, sports, entertainment, and culture. The club serves as its perfect ambassador, and RedBird is the right owner to bring Milan back to its glory days."
LeBron James spoke about Gerry Cardinale by saying these words:
"Based on my experience with SpringHill, Gerry (Cardinale) is an incredible partner. He says I've helped expand his vision, but he's too modest. I believe we can build a lot on this partnership: Maverick (Carter) and I are excited about the number of new opportunities we can explore with him."
Since RedBird takeover of Ac Milan, Gerry is now one of my favourite person ever.
