The decision he made at that time could have cost him his career.
In 1992, in an Albania in transition after the fall of the previous regime, Igli Tare decided to seek his future in Greece.
It took several years for him to start joining football teams in Germany, where he went as an illegal immigrant. Initially, as an amateur, and gradually as a professional.
The story of the former captain of the Albanian national team is well known, with his difficult climb up Teutonic football through Düsseldorf and Kaiserslautern, to reach Serie A where he played for almost 8 years, and then became one of the best football managers in the elite.
Today, when Igli Tare has signed a 2-year contract as Milan's sporting director, it is clear what a difficult path he has traveled, from the fields of the Partizani complex in Albania as a 16-year-old boy, from his experience as a refugee, to the armchair at the top of one of the biggest clubs in the world.
Who has forgotten the songs of the fans in the stadiums: Our goal scorer arrived by dinghy, Tare goal, Tare goal, Tare goal! He himself spoke about his period as an immigrant in an interview for the official website of Serie A.
" I went to Greece for a year, where I had a tough experience, because I experienced both the good and the bad side of that way of life. Then, the experience in Germany was what really shaped me. Arriving in Germany was really an adventure because I had to enter illegally. My journey in football was somewhat delayed, at least in terms of my goals to be in the world of football ," said Tare.
Milan means a great history, with 7 Champions since the early 1960s, with 19 Serie A titles, with presidents like Berlusconi, managers like Galliani, coaches like Nereo Rocco, Sacchi, Capello and Ancelotti, and endless stars on the field.
Tare has undoubtedly made a bet of his life, and it is believed he is aware that he will not be as comfortable as at Lazio, a club that has only won two scudettos.
