This Monday, Milan AC is about to experience a major turning point. The Lombard club inaugurates the Igli Tare era, a new sports director who came to bring order and a clear vision in the sports organization chart. Long boss of the sector in Lazio, the Albanian arrives with the reputation of a fine connoisseur of the market, used to finding talents and to make decisions settled. For Milan, it is a return to more traditional governance, expected by many observers after two seasons without solid technical benchmark.
Maignan and Hernandez, priority files
Upon his arrival in Milanello, Tare will have to decide on the immediate future of the French Mike Maignan and Theo Hernandez. The goalkeeper number 1 of the Blues, whose contract still runs, is already the subject of a proposal for extension accompanied by a salary revaluation. Nothing has yet been signed, but negotiations are advancing in a rather serene climate. For Hernandez, the situation promises to be more complex. The club reflects on a possible transfer, while studying alternatives for the position of left side, proof that the door is not closed to a departure this summer.
The Milanese transfer window therefore promises to be animated. If Maignan and Hernandez remain, they will embody the base of the new project. But Milan also wants to anticipate: several profiles are already followed in the event of movements, notably Udogie de Tottenham. The priority remains to strengthen defensive stability, without neglecting the offensive ambition, while the identity of the next coach will strongly influence the choices of recruitment.
Milan AC: Tare must decide for Maignan and Hernandez
Italian dynamics at the heart of the project
Tare intends to bet on familiar players from the club and on a reinforced Italian nucleus, like Gabbia. This refocusing aims to give a more assertive identity to the Rossonero locker room, after having observed the success of certain young talents already extended until 2030, such as Bartesaghi and Torriani. This strategic choice could weigh in the scale for Maignan and Hernandez.
The week that opens will therefore be decisive for the seven -time European champions: Maignan and Hernandez will finally know their fate, while Milan AC poses the foundations of his future under the aegis of Tare. Between stability, ambition and renovation, the Rossoneri will have to decide, and each decision made on Monday will weigh on the club's face for the coming seasons.
