Igli Tare in the running to become Milan's new sporting director, second

As the football season draws to a close, Milan's attention has naturally shifted to plans for the future.

After a season that did not meet expectations, the red and black club is looking for a new sports director - a key figure for building the team for next season and increasing the competitiveness of the sports project.

The name that heads the list of candidates is that of Igli Tare, former sporting director of Lazio.

A second meeting between Tara and Milan CEO Giorgio Furlani is scheduled for today, which is expected to take place in Rome, like the previous meeting held on April 15.

Igli Tare, favorite against rivals

According to 'La Gazzetta dello Sport', this is the third contact between the parties, after the first in London almost two months ago, when Tare met with Gerry Cardinale and Zlatan Ibrahimović.

Since then, communication between Tara and Milan's management has been constant, even by phone - a sign that the club seriously values ​​his profile.

Compared to other names such as Tony D'Amico (Atalanta), Giovanni Manna (Napoli) and Giovanni Sartori (Bologna), Tare has a clear advantage: he is free from any contractual obligations and can be immediately committed without the need for complicated negotiations with other clubs.

The right profile for the “RedBird” project

Tare has built a strong reputation over the years at Lazio as a talent scout and builder of competitive teams on limited budgets – an experience that fits well with Milan's new philosophy under the RedBird group: to combine financial sustainability with sporting ambition.

However, today's meeting is not expected to be decisive.

Furlani continues to explore the market to find the most suitable figure to take over Milan's technical project.

What is clear is that Igli Tare's name remains the hottest on the list.

Today's meeting will help to better understand the intentions of both sides and could be a crucial step towards a possible agreement.
