AC MILAN: SILVANO, A GLORY

The 2008-2009 season will be the first for Silvana Ramaccioni in the role of accompanying manager of Milan in the home games. "Rama"'s history is inimitable. Vittorio Mentana is the new team manager.

/noticias.info/ MILAN - He stays with Milan and it couldn't have been otherwise. Silvano Ramaccioni, inventor of the team manager role of a football club, has been a part of the Milan organisation since 18 May 1982. A man without edges, of passion and unequalled experience, has been in many season the ideal connection between the team and the club, between the coach and the players, between the Milanello structure and the invited fans. Well seen by opponents and by the world of sports communication in general, from next season he will be the accompanying manager for the referees in Milan's home games.

Vittorio Mentana will replace him as team manager, and he will also retain the role of communications Director of the club. Ramaccioni thus remains with the club in a different role after years and years of excellent work.

Aside from everything else, Silvano Ramaccioni is an indelible part of the Rossoneri's history. A name and a surname which, together, make up a guarantee. A past as a player with teams like Cittá di Castello (his city) and Tiberis di Umbertide, Silvano Ramaccioni soon became a fine sports manager. In 1962 at Castello, in 1973 at Cesena, and in 1974 at Perugia: this is the escalation which brings him to the Rossoneri after having worked alongside Ilario Castagner in the unbeaten Perugia team of the 1978-79 season.

Very well seen by Silvio Berlusconi, the inimitable "Rama" has won everything with the Rossoneri: on the national level 7 league titles, 5 Italian Supercups and 1 Coppa Italia, in Europe 5 Champions Cups and 5 European Supercups, and 3 Intercontinental Cups. notas_de_prensa_archivo
