The traditional August meeting between Milan and Juventus for the Trofeo Berlusconi has been postponed until January.
The competition, which began in 1991 and saw the Rossoneri take on a variety of opponents at San Siro, was set for late August.
The Calciopoli scandal forced a rethink because Milan are busy with the Champions League preliminary round, so the two clubs couldn’t find a date to agree on.
With this in mind, they have decided to play the showcase match, last year won by Milan 2-1, on January 6, 2007.
The tie had to be played, or they would’ve broken a contract with television companies who have paid up to transmit the game until 2014.
In the early years, the Trofeo Luigi Berlusconi was against sides like Inter, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, but since 1995 it has become a traditional appointment for Milan and Juventus.
