Italian media: The first question that Magic Diary asked Milan was "whether to win the championship", and the road to reconstruction is still long
The Evening Post reported that when Modric communicated with Milan, the first question was to ask whether the team was determined to win the championship.
As a Milan player, Modric has achieved great success at the media level. In an interview with the club media, he said: "I am very happy to be here to meet major challenges and start a new chapter in his career. Why choose Milan? Because this is a great club."
Modric, who is about to turn 40 in September, has obviously entered the end of his career. Although the best condition is a past, coach Allegri firmly believes that although he cannot solve all the problems of winning only Serie A and losing his core player Reindes three months ago, his leadership on the court and locker room will be extremely precious.
Allegri believes that this Milan needs a role model in urgent need. Just as the impact of Ibrahimovic's return in January 2020, the team finally won the 19th Serie A trophy two years later. Because of this, Ibrahimovic, who is now a Milan adviser, is very supportive of the plan to introduce Modric by sports director Tare.
Tarre also revealed key details: "When communicating, Modric's first question is 'whether the team is formed with the goal of winning the championship'."
Obviously, Magic Flute's mentality and aura are impeccable, and his honor-laden Real Madrid career is enough to prove it. Despite receiving a sky-high price quote from Saudi Arabia, he still chose to stay in the European arena.
Although this transaction is not about future investment, Modric is well versed in self-management. He played 65 games last season and had no muscle injuries. Allegri's 4-3-3 system plan allowed him to cover all positions in the midfield. The coach believes that his master-level long pass ability perfectly activates Leo's deep sprint ability.
Despite the expected prospects, Milan's transfer progress is still slow. After Reindez and Teo left the team, Modric was only the second signing after Ricci. The team still needs to add two full-backs, a central defender, a defensive midfielder and a center forward. Modric's joining is like the classic Milan work in the past, injecting passion into the team, but the road to reconstruction is still long.
