Alexandre Pato was Berlusconi’s son-in-law for two and a half years, until he announced the end of the relationship in July 2013, when he was playing for Corinthians. According to the player himself at the time, the distance was the main reason for the end of the relationship.
In addition, the former politician was Milan’s agent at the time Pato was hired by the club. In the striker’s five years in Milan, the two cultivated a relationship of respect and friendship, which remained until after the end of the relationship with the businessman’s daughter. Wearing the Rossoneri shirt, the player won an Italian Championship (2010/11) and an Italian Super Cup (2011).
Silvio Berlusconi died on Monday at the age of 86 at the San Raffaele hospital in Milan (ITA). The former prime minister of Italy was battling leukemia, diagnosed when he was hospitalized to treat a lung infection.
Finally, Pato was announced in São Paulo two weeks ago. This will be the athlete’s third passage through Tricolor – he wore the team’s shirt between 2014 and 2015 and between 2019 and 2020. In all, there are 133 matches for the Morumbi club, with 47 goals scored and 17 assists.
