Italian media sources indicate that the ex-footballer has identified his next team, where he will assume the role of sporting director. The club in question is none other than the reigning Italian champions, Napoli, and confirmation is expected in the coming days. Tare himself has met with President De Laurentis, reaching common ground for the initiation of a new journey.
The 50-year-old was an integral part of Lazio, both as a player and later as a technical director, where he remained for 15 years, showcasing remarkable work. His acquisitions and other decisions made him highly appreciated by President Lotito and the sporting community across Europe.
On the other hand, Napoli is facing challenges, from being declared champions last year to struggling to secure a place in European competitions this season. The team is not responding as expected, and the issue doesn't seem to lie with the coach but higher up. This is where Tare is expected to bring about changes. However, until the move is officially confirmed, the situation remains unchanged. The potential addition of Igli Tare to Napoli's leadership could mark a turning point for the team in its pursuit of success.
