Silvio Berlusconi expressed his pride at joining Santiago Bernabeu as the most successful presidents in world football following AC Milan's Supercoppa Italiana triumph.
Milan got the better of Juventus in a penalty shoot-out in Doha last week, having earlier beaten the Serie A champions in the league back in October.
And Berlusconi claimed that success took him level with former Real Madrid president Bernabeu.
He told Libero: "AC Milan took home another trophy, the Supercoppa Italiana, and with that I joined Santiago Bernabeu, the legendary Real Madrid president.
"We are the two club presidents who have won the most in the history of world football. I do not think I can complain."
Berlusconi also addressed the further delay in the takeover of Milan by Fininvest and Sino-Europe Sports, which will now have to wait until March 3 to be completed.
"The negotiation has already reached a successful outcome," he added.
