Secrets of Igli Tares, the assailant who became a sports director

Igli Tare never thought his soccer career would continue at these levels after hanging shoes on nails.

But a fortunate coincidence in June 2008 placed it in a post where the former Albanian national attacker is shining more than in the playing field.

At the time, he was 35 years old and closed his third season as an additional bomb at Lacio, but since then he has returned to Europe's most coveted sports director, with merit in the race until days earlier as well as the world's best.

The blonde, preparing this January to play in the charity match at the Air Albania Stadium in Tirana, was the focus of a beautiful coverage at Gazzeta Dello Sport, where his skills were restored to discover talents and finalise smart purchases.

“A polyglot and master of videos offered by scouts, but selects footballers only after watching them in action personally”.

Igli Tares' elections in Lacio's leading hierarchy are made in secret, through Europe's unique network of contacts, a Russian observation platform, and at least 12 months of study. This work practically brings whitejacks huge economic profits, with players multiplying value.

Procurators who discover the testes burn their own work, and in Lacio's case, it's almost never happened. As the report for the Albanian, Igli Tare works in the shadows and thus raises his clever beatings in the European football merkato.
