Meeting the Milan Media: Simone Cristao [Bonus Article]

Welcome to the seventh edition of Meeting the Milan Media! In this series, we interview the journalists who cover AC Milan on a daily basis, getting to know them and their occupation better. This time we spoke to the brilliant Simone Cristao, who is the director of Radio Rossonera and has become a very familiar face among Rossoneri fans.

Although most of our readers (that’s you!) are English-speaking, and as such perhaps don’t watch/listen to Italian shows, most will still have heard of Simone Cristao before. Having been the director of Radio Rossonera for several years now, fans have been able to connect more with Simone than they perhaps would with other journalists, seeing as he makes his voice heard through video and radio.

In the interview below, we get to the bottom of why Simone became a journalist, how long he has been in the field and what the biggest challenges are for him on a day-to-day basis. Furthermore, we asked about his interest - and brilliant coverage - in the stadium situation in San Donato, the power of radio/video, and the future of Milan amid the recent struggles.
