New figure in the project dictated to AC Milan, Paulo Fonseca must follow a precise course of action centered around his ability to unearth talent in young elements, which he did in the past at LOSC.
Two weeks ago, AC Milan formalized the appointment of Paulo Fonseca as head of its first team. The project he must carry out has also been detailed and this, with undoubtedly higher objectives, has some similarities with the work carried out at LOSC. The abilities demonstrated by the technician in developing Lille’s youth have satisfied the Lombard management which, in addition to a quest for trophies, is counting on the talents of its new technician to make the Rossoneri shine: “Every day we talk to Paulo, we share thoughts and strategiesconfides Zlatan Ibrahimovic, member of the AC Milan management. The desire is to help the team progress, which is one of its strengths. We also have a project for under-23s, this will be very important for us. Fonseca gives young people the chance to emerge, he has already proven it”he explains, likening his speech to the successes of his coach in Lille.
The Swede was not missed. During his time with the Mastiffs, the Portuguese technician gave a chance to around ten young players, from Ayyoub Bouaddi to Trévis Dago, including Ichem Ferrah, Amine Messoussa and Carlos Baleba. Something that he nevertheless did not manage to achieve in Lille, although he hoped, to win titles: “Little details we talked about. Next year, there are four trophies to win (Serie A, Italian Cup, Champions League, Italian Super Cup, editor’s note): a club like Milan must be competitive. Our responsibility is to put the coach in the best conditions to win everything”ended up exclaiming Zlatan Ibrahimovic, finally recalling the speech usually given by Olivier Létang: “Our DNA is to win everything”, he repeated with confidence throughout the season. Paulo Fonseca, who will obviously have more resources at his disposal, will therefore not be disoriented.
