All roads lead to Gennaro Gattuso. The Federcalcio identified in the former Milan player, world champion in 2006, the right man to raise the fate of the Italian national team with the mission to center the qualification for the widespread World Cup of the United States, Canada and Mexico of 2026 and avoid the third consecutive bankruptcy. After days of voices, at the beginning of next week there should be the definition of the whole. Gianluigi Buffon is working on the Gattuso project, which will have to restore life and vitality to the now discolored blue. The idea is to involve the 2006 champions to instill the battagliero spirit in the group, and hopes winning. And so, it is assumed to support Gattuso one like Leonardo Bonucci, who as “growling”, has always put grit and character at will on the pitch. If the after Mancini resolved within a few days with the engagement of Luciano Spalletti, this time the search for the new CT is more weighted after the no of Sir Claudio Ranieri. In via Allegri there is all the intention to take all the time possible to make the right choice, also because, the world qualification discourse is uphill and not without difficulty after Oslo’s disaster and the shy reaction against the modest Moldova.
At the moment there was no meeting between Gattuso and the President of the Football Federation Gabriele Gravina: the definition of everything will be there, in all probability at the beginning of next week. Said of Bonucci, other former Azzurri of Germany 2006 should enter the Gattuso staff: the most popular names are that of Andrea Barzagli and those of Zambrotta e Perrotta As figures to be included in Club Italia. For Cesare Prandelli, whose name has circulated in the last few hours, there should be a role of coordinator of the nurseries in the Technical Center of Coverciano. Gattuso has an important story with the national team, which began already in the youth teams, participated in three World Cup including the victorious one of 2006 and embodies the spirit of service and the pride of dressing the blue. After the experiences on the bench with Sion, Palermo, Crete, Pisa, Milan, Naples, Valencia, Marseille and Hajduk Split, the Coverciano gate should open for him for the first experience as a technical commissioner. The blue casting did not still stop at Gattuso but was enlarged to other 2006 champions, by Daniele De Rossi to Fabio Cannavaro who, however, have gradually lost strength. For the next coach, the first official commitments will be two fundamental games for qualifying for the 2026 World Cup. On September 5, Italy-Estonia, on September 8 Israel-Italy. Where you shouldn’t be wrong.
