A half-sentence from Tonali blew out the ashes of a never-extinguished love: what if he returned to Milan?
Zlatan Ibrahimovic said in “Adrenalina”: “The first year, Sandro was trapped in the dream. He looked around and repeated to himself: this is the team I dreamed of as a child… This year he entered real life. Now he repeats himself: I’m a Milan player and he plays. It’s a panzer in the middle.” And so, Sandro Tonali won the scudetto. He seemed predestined for 10 years of the Devil with the armband, due to his charisma and deep love, but instead he flew to the Premier League. Milan needed Newcastle’s 64 million, Sandro didn’t mind the 7 million salary. Popular bewilderment: a young captain in love should be an unmarketable commodity. But, in the last hours, that same people have vibrated: “Sandro comes back!”. To unleash the dream, a half sentence from Tonali was enough (“I don’t want to say that I will stay at Newcastle for 10 years…”).

Ok, Prince Sandro, prisoner in the tower of the New Castle, is not very credible with what he earns, but his friends blurt out that he would come back in a hurry and that the ancient love has never died. Can Milan, forced to sell Reijnders, without Champions League revenue, afford it? This is another plan. Here we talk about dreams. And so let’s imagine Nicolò Barella from Casteddu and Sandro Tonali from Nuovo Castello, former children in love with their respective colours, blue pillars, Italian captains, walking towards the center of the pitch, in a passionate derby setting, in the new, glittering San Siro. It would seem like Sandro Mazzola and Gianni Rivera in the old one, preceded by the referee Lo Bello and the traffic policeman in the overcoat.
