Italian football legend Andrea Pirlo has become one of the candidates for the position of head coach of the Italian national team.
Idman.Biz reports that "La Gazzetta dello Sport" has released information about this.
According to the source, the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) realizes that inviting former Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola is a difficult task, and Pirlo is an alternative option. Antonio Conte and Roberto Mancini are also being considered.
The Italian team lost to Bosnia and Herzegovina in the final of the playoff stage for a ticket to the 2026 World Cup (1:1, 1:4). The head coach of the national team, Gennaro Gattuso, was later dismissed.
