Amorim aims for dominance in Serie A with AC Milan

Ruben Amorim has set himself the ambitious goal of leading AC Milan back to the top of Serie A. After two disappointing seasons in which Milan failed to qualify for the Champions League, Amorim is determined to get the club back on the road to success. He took over as coach in June and now wants to win the Scudetto to secure the club the second star above the club's crest. For a long time last season, Milan were in a good position to secure a Champions League place, but suffered a dramatic setback in recent weeks, ending up in fifth place. Amorim, who previously worked at Manchester United, describes the challenge of coaching at Milan as "even greater". "When you face this challenge, you have to try to win as much as possible," Amorim explained. He knows it will be difficult to achieve the goal, but he is determined to give it his all. "Our main goal is to dominate the league. Everything else will follow," he emphasized. Amorim is aware that this is more than just a slogan; it means becoming part of the history of an iconic club. Milan last won the Scudetto in the 2021-22 season and are now aiming for a 20th title, which would earn them the second star. "I'm hungry for success. I believe in Milan," he added. To achieve their goals, Milan have already made a significant signing: Goncalo Ramos arrived from Paris Saint-Germain for a record fee of 80 million euros. The Portuguese, who played for his country during the World Cup, scored 45 goals in 131 appearances for PSG and won 12 titles. Amorim praised Ramos: "I really like Goncalo. He showed against Croatia that he is capable of scoring goals even under pressure." Despite the positive news, there are also uncertainties in the squad. Rafael Leao has been linked with a move and Luka Modric's future is unclear. Modric, who is 40, could end his international career following Croatia's exit from the World Cup, but Amorim is keen to keep him in the team. "I want Modric to stay. I have spoken to him and will pick him up personally if necessary!" This season will be crucial for Amorim and Milan. The pressure to inspire the fans and continue the club's history is great. With a mix of experience and new talent, Milan look ready to take on the challenge and dominate Serie A.
