Bacca tells anecdotes with Berlusconi and recalls a message he gave him that he fulfills to the letter today.
“Whenever he arrived in the sports city, he did it in his helicopter (laughs). He gets out with a smile and always tried to talk (Mario) Balotelli, who was like a son to him. I remember when he arrived we could have a conversation or training and the first thing he did was take Balotelli away from where he was to talk to him, hug him, scold him, advise him,” he said.
“A message? That he enjoyed life, that he always gave his best and that he never stopped smiling,” he adds.
For the porteño, the death of Berlusconi, who had been suffering from leukemia for two years, is an irreparable loss to Italian football in general.
“Italian football loses a lot, it loses a very recognized and successful person. A person who always gave the best of himself. Now he had grabbed Monza from the lowest category and raised it to First Division. His goal was to bring him to Europe and he would certainly succeed. Unfortunately we lost him today, but wherever he is, he will be happy with everything he has achieved,” he concluded.
