When Amorim was appointed as the new head coach of Milan, it was almost immediately suggested that he could have a coach-manager role. Matteo Moretto said that he would have ‘significant influence’ on the decisions made, especially the transfers.
It seems that is indeed the case, as Amorim not only played a huge part in the signing of Goncalo Ramos, but also in getting the green light from Mario Gila. The economic offer made a difference too, but as Fabrizio Romano said, the coach is heavily involved.
Amorim’s era
On his X account, Daniele Longo added to the above by stating that Milan have embraced the ideas of Amorim. That’s a breath of fresh air, considering that the old management and Max Allegri didn’t exactly see eye to eye all the time last season.
“Milan are moving forward by fully embracing Amorim’s ideas, and this is objectively a good thing. The Portuguese coach has already spoken with Gila, presenting his vision of football and the ambitious Rossoneri project. Gila wants to wear the Milan jersey,” he wrote.
It remains to be seen when the deal will get over the line, the one for Gila that is, but it’s nice to know that Amorim is very influential when it comes to picking the target.
