AC Milan has finally resolved the sporting director matter: in the last few hours, there was a definitive acceleration for Igli Tare, who had practically remained the only real candidate on the Rossoneri's list, and late last night came the confirmation (still unofficial) that the Albanian will become part of the Milan organisation starting in the coming days.
Finally, for the RedBird-owned club, planning for the next season can begin, a season that will need to be the exact opposite of the one now drawing to a close.
Tare’s first task will be to choose the new coach: there has not yet been any communication regarding Sergio Conceição, but at this point, his staying on appears unlikely. Today’s edition of Tuttosport, in reporting the news of the final agreement with Tare, has the following subheading:
“Now the coach: there was tension with Sarri at Lazio. Watch out for Italiano and Xavi.”
The trail leading to Maurizio Sarri could cool due to the not-so-ideal relationship during their shared time at Lazio. The name that could unite everyone is Vincenzo Italiano, while Xavi represents the foreign option.
