Igli Tare is a center forward, you can see. Physical, concrete, with the feet on the ground, well planted in history. He grew up in Albania cheering for the great Milan and, when he talks about the team he has in mind, he does continuous references to the club’s values: from there he wants to leave. He played with Baggio and Guardiola and knows that the champions in a changing room make the difference: for this reason his first act as a sports director was to go and get Luka Modric, a golden ball. Tare speaks with journalists in the first informal release as a Rossoneri manager and makes it clear that he feels the responsibility of being to Milan. Thank “all the company for the welcome” and says: “Milan’s glorious history gives me a huge responsibility, to give its best and help bring the club where it deserves, at the top of Italian and European football”. The Milan who has in mind, between the lines, is understood. A Milan with Maignan and an almost all new defense, without Theo and perhaps with central perspective lions. A reconstructed midfield, of quality, which combines dribble and intensity. An attack that starts from Leao and a new 9, which at the moment will not be Vlahovic and not even Kean, far from the technical and economic identikit of the center forward to be taken on the market. These are his statements, divided by topics, starting from the player symbol of the new course.

Modric

“I spoke to him in person, I saw a boy with a great desire to be competitive. His arrival is fundamental for a group that needs players like this, of leadership. The first question that Luka asked me was ‘will we be a team built to win the championship?’ Of Milan makes this story even more exciting and for him it would be excellent to make a protagonist season: at the end of the season there is the World Cup “.

The Milan market

“The position we care about most is the number 6, the midfielder in front of the defense, then we will fix the rest. The midfield is the department in which we will change more, we want to increase the quality of play. We will intervene on the left -back and right back. Departure of an exterior, it will be expected to intervene with one or two players.

The number 9

“We are looking for a player to compete with Gimenez, in which we have a maximum trust. He will have to be a real center forward, who makes the difference inside the area and helps to raise the team. This was missing after the farewell of Giroud. We are looking for in Italy and outside. There are also market opportunities, if I will be convinced that it is the right thing I will be ready to exploit them. Camarda? Lecce “.

Maignan and Leao Pilastri

“Maignan is not at the start, he will play in Milan also in the next season. I think Leao is a real champion, few in football players who decide the games alone. Rafa is essential for the team and the project. The coach and I spoke to him, it was a nice surprise, he is a very competitive boy: his questions were on strengthening the team. He has not yet shown what he can do.

The sale of Theo Hernandez

“The qualities of Theo are not under discussion, the assessments also start from a will on his part to look for a new experience. The sale is not yet defined, we are working.”

Fundamental loftus-cheek

“How to replace Reijnders? Milan have Loftus-Cheek, one of the most complete midfielders in the European panorama, can be fundamental for the season. On the quality of the player there is no discussion, however we must be careful of the accident issue”.

Musah outgoing

“I consider Musah an excellent player but we are looking for players with features for the project with Allegri. We are looking for low midfielders from midfield to three and Musah does not have these characteristics: he can play two or from the mezzala”.

Milan who wants to see

“We must not hide, it will be important to be competitive immediately. At the start we turn to play with a midfield in three but transformable during the games. The team must be compact, dominate the games, have players of great dribbling. A median low as Modric is very popular with the technical level of the team, which was already good. The championship can give us great satisfaction, we must be protagonists immediately and transmit enthusiasm to the fans”.

The emotions and values ​​of his Milan

“I welcomed this opportunity with great enthusiasm, to work for a club with such a glorious story. I realized a dream, working in the club that I cheered as a child. I really like the sense of belonging and I try to transmit it. You have to bring players who recognize themselves in the history of Milan”.
