Italy coach Roberto Mancini has announced that the rebuilding project for Gli Azzurri has begun, following their defeat against Spain in the UEFA Nations League semi-final. The Italian national team failed to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, but Mancini is optimistic about the new path and direction for the team.
Mancini noted that the qualifying phase of the Nations League was played with young players, some of whom were not well-known. He highlighted the U-20 World Cup and the U-21 competitions as crucial in the development of the Italian team.
Despite their recent struggles, Gli Azzurri has a rich history in football, having won the FIFA World Cup four times and the Euros twice. Mancini is determined to bring the team back to their former glory and has already started the new project with a group of young players.
As they prepare for the UEFA Nations League Third-Place game against the Netherlands, the Italian team will continue to build on their recent successes and work towards a brighter future. With Mancini at the helm, the future looks bright for Gli Azzurri.
