Main conclusions
- Amorim defines Milan's direction and talks about Modric and Leão's future.
- Ruben Amorim, Milan's new coach, spoke about the reinforcement Diawara and Rafael Leão's situation, emphasizing the importance of the team and Modric's analysis for the upcoming friendlies.
- Amorim detta the linea del Milan. It's about Modric and Leao's future.
Milan is in a climate of change and new coach Ruben Amorim has already started his work at the helm of the team. On a day marked by the confirmation of the arrival of young Diawara, acquired from Troyes for 3 million euros, Amorim made a point of clarifying his priorities and visions for the future of the Rossoneri team.
During a press conference in Australia, where the team is on tour, the coach spoke about the situation of Rafael Leão, one of the most coveted players in the squad, who has attracted interest from Fenerbahçe. "It's not complicated to decide what we'll do with him. For me, the most important thing is the team. I'll talk to Rafael, Ramos, Saelemaekers and all the players returning from the World Cup to explain our strategy. I know there's a lot of speculation about some of our athletes, but they'll remain with us until something changes," said Amorim, demonstrating confidence in the striker's maintenance.

Amorim also commented on Luka Modric, who recently renewed his contract and is expected for the next friendlies. "It's difficult to say whether Modric will play. The plan is for him to participate in the friendlies here, but everything can change. When a new player arrives, we need to evaluate each situation. The main focus is to prepare the team for the first match of the season, but we want to present our best players so that everyone can see them and to prepare our team. The idea is that Luka will play, but this still needs to be confirmed", explained the coach.
Finally, he reflected on his career and what he hopes for the future. "Sometimes some people are very lucky and I feel like I've been lucky in my career. I'm the same age as Luka Modric, so I'm still young. But a lot of times, age doesn't matter, what counts is experience. With all the experience I've accumulated, both positive and negative, I believe that's key. I'd be happy if that was minelast stop (my last role as a coach), so I need all the experience I've collected over time."
With these statements, Ruben Amorim demonstrates that he is ready for the challenge and seeks to build a competitive team at Milan that can fight for titles next season and that, above all, maintains unity and focus as a group.
What happens next
Amorim plans to talk to Rafael Leão and other players returning from the World Cup to discuss the team's strategy. The expectation is that Leão will remain at Milan, but pressure from Fenerbahçe could complicate the situation. The coach's immediate focus is to prepare the team for friendlies and the first match of the season.
