Roberto Mancini alone will decide on his future with Italy

Roberto  Mancini Italy head coach

In Italy, everything around the federal coach will depend on what decision Roberto Mancini makes. If the latter decides to continue, then there is no question of replacing him. But if he decides to leave then the issue changes and already as reported by "Gazzetta dello Sport" there are already three candidates to claim his position. They are Fabio Cannavaro, Roberto De Zerbi and Gennaro Gattuso.


It all depends on Mancini as the current coach has a contract until the 2026 World Cup. Mancini earns 4 million a year, plus bonuses. The coach will definitely be on the bench in Konya, for the match against Turkey and then the decision will be made.


On the one hand there is the desire to stay to lead the country to the World Cup, but on the other hand is the reality of a National team which after an unforgettable European course and the conquest of EURO 2020, has collapsed.


"Divorce", then, is not something that should be ruled out, hence all three names starting with Fabio Cannavaro, the "blue" symbol, the last leader to lift the World Cup in Berlin, with 136 entries and is behind only by Buffon.


Cannavaro has coached in Dubai, Arabia and China, including as a service technician for the Italian National Team. In Guangzhou, he even won the championship and the Super Cup.


Then there are two other proposals, which lead to two new technicians. One is Rino Gattuso, another symbol of Berlin: his work has been praised in Milan and Naples. Roberto De Zerbi has remarkable results in Sassuolo, who "launched" her in Europe.


He is now linked with Shakhtar on a two-year deal, but given the situation in Ukraine he could remain free until June. Less popular, at the moment, are experience solutions, like that of Claudio Ranieri. On the contrary, it seems early for Daniele De Rossi: he has a great future, but he has to mature in training.


The fact is that as things stand at the moment, the best solution as De Rossi does not have the experience needed for such a crucial position, it is better to remain Mancini who knows the players and they know him too. You just have to have someone by your side to help you with some difficult decisions
