Capello: Ashari won t repeat the CDK mistakes. Leo is undoubtedly a genius but his performance is too unstable

August 7 News Recently, the famous Italian coach Capello was interviewed by the Milan Sports Daily.

Milan signed Bruges midfielder Ashari

"37 million euros, including the bonus? This is a considerable expense for an Italian team."

Can Ashari really have such a trajectory?

"I admit that I have only seen him in the Champions League in the past year. This is too little to be obtained, let alone give absolute guarantees. But this guy seems to me to be a top player in the position in the future. In short, this is a Milan-style signing in my mind."

Some fans are worried about the "Decait Lare effect", he was the last player to join Bruges but failed to meet expectations.

"To be honest, I think Ashari is another type of player. I mean not talent, but personality. I heard, and when I watch him on the court, I also give people the impression of fearlessness. De Ketrare had never left his hometown of Bruges before. And Ashari is Swiss and has Albanian descent. The situation is different."

What does it mean?

"First of all, Ashari has moved home once, and went to Belgium from Switzerland last year. This means you have to prove your worth in a place where no one knows you, and he even won the Best Player in the League and did a good job in the Champions League. In my opinion, Ashari is the type that needs to show masculinity or give more to win, and he doesn't back down. Although he is Swiss, he obviously has the blood of the Balkans in his blood vessels."

You have indeed coached a lot of important players from that region in Milan and elsewhere.

"Boban, Savicevic, Suk, Mijatovic, that was football in another era, but in some regions, they had more than talent. They were the kind of people who did not accept failure. And in today's Milan, plus Modric and Ashari on the court, the management has Tare, and you inject a strong personality on and off the court."

Speaking of Tare, Ashari is the most expensive signing since he served as management.

"It also prompted me to think it was a correct acquisition. Tare is an experienced sports director who knows what it takes to succeed in a place like Milan. If Tare chose Ashari, it was not only because he saw a good player, but also because he was a reliable person in all aspects. He was not the kind of person who left the will. Don't forget that there is also Allegri, and he must have approved the acquisition."

Now fans think that Milan lacks the most is center.

"Well, first of all, this is the number question: Jimenez is the only one in the lineup. He left some questions in the first 6 months in Milan, just like many others in the team." Is

Leo too?

"Leo is another matter. There is no doubt that he is a genius, but he has performed too unstable so far. Well, under Allegri, I expect him to be more sustainable and decisive. The initial signs have been revealed."

Back to Jimenez, are you disappointed in him?

"He showed some things, but it was far from enough compared to the price the club paid and everyone's expectations when he arrived. It has to be said that few things went smoothly in Milan last season, so Jimenez also had some excuses."

Do you have a feeling that if you introduce another top striker now, this Milan can compete for more than the Champions League qualification?

"I feel this way, but first of all because Allegri knows how to win in big teams. Secondly, I said that if you have a center that can score 20 goals, it would be easier to celebrate the championship in May than not (laughs). "

Is Vlahovic the forward who can score 20 goals in Milan?

"He has done it in Fiorentina, and last year he was not far from this number (16 goals), despite facing overall difficulties. Vlahovic is a penalty-type center, and he must have the ability to score goals, as long as he regained his confidence and opportunity."

Why is the situation in Milan different from that in Juventus?

"I have said it many times, he will come with the desire to prove himself and the pressure to lessen. These are not two small details."
