Adani on Allegri to Milan: “How can the coach’s name come out before the sporting director?”

Lele Adani was particularly animated during his show Viva El Futbol, created with Antonio Cassano and Nicola Ventola. Beyond a disagreement with Cassano about Thiago Motta, Adani also expressed his skepticism about Massimiliano Allegri being considered for the Milan coaching position.

SHOULD THE COACH BE CHOSEN BEFORE THE SPORTING DIRECTOR? HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? – Adani questioned, “I always say that if the ownership chooses a director so that he has the power, the authority, to then choose the coach and build a team together… How can the coach’s name be circulating before the sporting director has even been chosen?

WHO TO CHOOSE AS DIRECTOR? – “Paratici or Tare? I like that these names are being discussed because it’s the first step of a club that has understood its mistake and decided to bring in football people, who are active, focused, who build the team. The things we always say about the complex role of the sporting director. That’s fine with me. But you shouldn’t, in my opinion, suggest the coach before the sporting director is in place.”
