Silvio Berlusconi has given Milan tactician Carlo Ancelotti a vote of confidence and has faith in his squad, even if he is eyeing reinforcements.

There have been suggestions that Ancelotti’s reign will come to an end this summer should he fail to clinch fourth place and Champions League football.

However, it seems that President Berlusconi feels a thin squad is the cause of the Diavolo’s disappointing campaign.

“Ancelotti is part of the Milan family and I expect him to be here in the coming years,” he said on Radio Radio. “But a great side has to have more champions.

“We had to deal with the serious injury to Ronaldo and this team was built on having a battering ram like him up front with Alexandre Pato and Kaka in behind creating things.

“Still, we have a squad full of great players, even if they are getting older. Paolo Maldini will probably retire, but we aren’t ageing too badly. We just need to look to youth for our reinforcements.”

Meanwhile, the Rossoneri are reportedly closing in on a deal for unsettled Barcelona star Ronaldinho.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Milan have prepared a four-year contract to offer the Brazilian star and they will present it to his brother and agent Roberto Assis within the week.
