Adriano Galliani Detailed Biography

Adriano Galliani (born 30 July 1944 in Monza) is an Italian entrepreneur involved in Italian football.

He is most famously known as being both the past CEO of AC Milan and past President of Serie A. Galliani was forced to resign from both these positions in the summer of 2006 due to the findings of the Calciopoli investigations into match fixing in Italian football. Because of this tribunal, Galliani was handed a 1 year ban from football, where he cannot hold any formal football administrative titles in Italy. This was reduced to 9 months and then further reduced to 5 months upon appeal.

Galliani is also famous for his looks. With his bald head and thick eyebrows, he is also known by his nickname "Uncle Fester", a character from The Addams Family.
