Roberto Mancini addresses rumors of becoming Italy’s head coach

The specialist gave an ambiguous answer.

Details: Al Sadd manager Roberto Mancini, aged 61, recently addressed rumors about a potential return as head coach of the Italy national team in an interview. When asked about it, he avoided providing a clear response, sparking further interest among fans.

“My return to the Italy job? Next question… In recent years, Italy has won more than Germany. The young player who impressed me the most is Palestra. Cancelleri also has excellent qualities but doesn’t get much attention. Malagò as a suitable candidate for FIGC? I don’t know…”

Mancini previously led the Azzurri from 2018 to 2023, overseeing 61 matches with a record of 39 wins, 13 draws, and 9 losses. His notable achievement as head coach was securing the Euro 2020 title.

Reminder: The Italy national team could potentially qualify for the World Cup due to sanctions imposed on Iran.
