Forget Tiki-Taka, this is why Italy need Guardiola – video | OneFootball

In the second episode of the Football Italia LIVE Show, Lorenzo Bettoni and Richard Hall debated why Italy should look beyond short-term fixes and consider appointing a coach of Pep Guardiola’s calibre to reshape the national team.

It may remain a distant dream, but the idea has gained traction among Azzurri supporters, with Paolo Maldini’s influence helping to fuel speculation.

They also discuss the latest transfer moves, with Roma looking increasingly unlikely to secure a deal for Crysencio Summerville and Inter exploring a move for Cristian Romero while his Tottenham teammate Djed Spence is no longer among the Nerazzurri’s priorities.
