The info not to be missed

In recent months, repeated hospitalizations had revealed the decline in his health. The former head of the Italian government, Silvio Berlusconi died on Monday at the age of 86. On Friday, the Lombard billionaire was hospitalized in Milan for check-ups as part of his illness, a chronic leukemia diagnosed in early April.

A man of power accustomed to polemics, "il Cavaliere" multiplied health problems in recent years, he who survived prostate cancer, open heart surgery and, more recently, Covid-19. "Today's sadness does not erase the happy moments spent together," said former PSG Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti, who played as a player and coach at AC Milan, a club owned for more than thirty years by the Italian statesman.

The info that concerns you
