With Mancini’s resignation accepted, the FIGC is poised to finalize the agreement with the current reigning champion coach of Italy.
Luciano Spalletti is set to become the new head coach of Italy. The FIGC and Napoli are in contact to allow the reigning Italian champion coach to take the helm of the National Team, left vacant by the resignation of Roberto Mancini.
As for the release clause payment, verifications are underway, but the role of head coach might not pose a conflict of interest with the current Italian champions.
Spalletti has emerged as the clear winner and is expected to be announced after the ‘Ferragosto’ (mid-August).
Coming off the triumph of winning the Scudetto with the club led by Aurelio De Laurentiis, the coach from Certaldo is ready to take on the role of leading the Azzurri National Team into the upcoming summer’s European Championship.
