🚨 Official: Italy have their new manager! | OneFootball

It’s a different atmosphere in Italy.

In the wake of the fiasco that led to Andrea Pirlo withdrawing his candidacy, as well as the resignations of Paolo Maldini and Leonardo, the president of the Italian federation officially confirmed the name of the next head coach during the federal council meeting.

The lucky man is Roberto Mancini. Already on the Italy bench between 2018 and 2023, the 61-year-old coach is therefore set to return at the helm of the Nazionale.

Fabrizio Romano and La Gazzetta dello Sport also confirmed that Claudio Ranieri is arriving as the FIGC’s technical director.

Winner of Euro 2020, can Mancini take Italy back to the World Cup?
