Straits Times26-05-2025
AC Milan have appointed Albanian Igli Tare as their new sporting director, the Serie A club announced on Monday, as part of a broader reset following a disappointing season.
The 51-year-old former forward joins after Milan finished eighth in Serie A and missed out on European competition for the first time since 2019.
"We are pleased to welcome Tare to the Rossoneri family. He is the right person to kick-off our reset," Milan CEO Giorgio Furlani said in a statement.
Tare spent 15 years as sporting director at Lazio, overseeing a period that included three Coppa Italia and three Italian Super Cup titles. REUTERS

Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox GDANSK - Galatasaray have signed striker Victor Osimhen from Serie A side Napoli for 75 million euros (85.74 million dollars), the Super Lig champions announced on Thursday, making the Nigerian the most expensive incoming transfer in Turkish soccer. Osimhen's transfer shattered the previous record set by Fenerbahce when they signed Youssef En-Nesyri from Sevilla on a five-year contract for 20 million euros in July last year. As part of the agreement, 10% of any future profit from Osimhen's next transfer will be paid to SSC Napoli, Galatasaray said. "A four-year contract has been signed with the player, starting from the 2025-2026 season" Galatasaray said. According to the agreement, the 26-year-old will receive net guaranteed salary of 15.0 million euros for each season. Osimhen will also get a net loyalty bonus of 1.0 million euros per season and 5.0 million euros as image rights payments — compensating for the use of his name, image, and likeness in the club's branding and promotional activities. Napoli also confirmed the terms of the deal. Top stories Swipe. Select. Stay informed.
