Italy's national football team is preparing for a new chapter under the leadership of some of the country's most respected football figures. Following the election of Giovanni Malagò as president of the Italian Football Federation, plans are taking shape to relaunch the Azzurri after years of disappointing results.
Antonio Conte and Roberto Mancini have emerged as the leading candidates for the head coach position. Both managers bring extensive experience and strong credentials at both club and international level. Paolo Maldini is also expected to play a key role, with reports suggesting he could become the federation's new technical director.
A decision on the next head coach is expected soon. The federation is eager to begin a rebuilding process that can restore Italy's status among Europe's elite and, above all, secure qualification for the next FIFA World Cup. With little room for further setbacks, the pressure to make the right choice has never been greater.
