Giorgio Furlani has now returned to Igli Tare after months of him being linked to AC Milan. However, it is not without a warning.
The entire management was restructured as a result of the interest in Tare. Yes, Furlani, at one point, was that against the idea that he sought more control from Gerry Cardinale and was granted it.
After months of chasing dead ends, though, Milan are now set to hire the Albanian director of football, which, in itself, is a baffling idea, given it brings up a conversation about the club’s belief in him. However, here we are.
There are several heavyweight tasks to deal with this summer, but the director is ‘ready’ for it, according to reports. It will certainly be intriguing to see how his tenure goes, but he will still have to report to those above him.
As Milan News recalls, just last week, Furlani stated that the club would still decide the transfers. So, Tare could provide his ideal list, and the management could go against his wishes and go elsewhere. If this were to be the case, his appointment would be pointless.
We must see how things unfold, but Tare has to be the reference point and leading man in the football side of things. He cannot just be a passenger.
