AC Milan releases a statement denying online rumours that club legend and honorary vice president Franco Baresi has died. Multiple messages circulating on social media claim he had passed away, prompting the club to clarify the situation publicly. In its denial, Milan says the reports are false and urges people not to trust unverified posts. The club presents Baresi as an important figure in its history and reiterates his current status as a member of the club in an honorary role. The reports originate from messages shared online rather than from any official announcement. Milan’s response focuses on correcting misinformation and closing the gap between what is being spread on social platforms and the club’s official position. The club does not provide additional details beyond the denial, and no independent confirmation of Baresi’s death is cited in the reports. The story centers on the spread of inaccurate information and the club’s attempt to halt further circulation.
