Following the unsuccessful appointment of Andrea Pirlo as the Italy national team selector, the new federation management reportedly possesses a large number of options for the vacant position. According to popular newsman Niko Skira, the pool of available coaches includes several candidates who have already been considered. The technical director, Paolo Malagò, and his advisor, Leonardo, are reportedly looking at a list of candidates.
This list features young specialists such as Raffaele Palladino and Tiago Mota, who have already been mentioned in relation to the role. Additionally, the experienced Stefano Poglioli has been noted for his recent work in Serie A. Conversely, the president of the FIGC, Giovanni Malagò, has expressed a preference for established figures.
These include former coach Roberto Mancini, who led the team to the Euro 2020 victory, and Antonio Conte, who possesses championship titles with three different top-tier Italian clubs: Juventus, Inter, and Napoli. Skira suggests that, at present, the young specialists are gaining traction among the coaches being discussed for the Italy role. This suggests a divergence in preference between the federation’s technical staff and its president regarding the ideal candidate to lead the national team.
