Tuttosport: Benatia the latest candidate for Tare’s former role at AC Milan

The international break is over, but at Milan, the issue of appointing a 'Head of Football' (or, more simply, a sporting director) has once again resurfaced, as it periodically does.

With the possibility of bringing in German executive Markus Krösche now definitively ruled out, both familiar and new names are circulating as potential candidates for the role.

The position would serve as a link between Ruben Amorim and Gerry Cardinale in managing day-to-day affairs at Milanello, as well as in planning transfer-market activity and strengthening the squad currently at the Portuguese coach’s disposal, as relayed via Tuttosport in this morning's print edition.
