Italy's revival is entrusted to Maldini and Leonardo, new coach almost

The Italian national team has begun a new reorganization process at the highest management levels of the Italian Football Federation.

Following the appointment of Paolo Maldini as technical director, the FIGC has also appointed Leonardo as the federation's senior advisor.

The former Milan and Paris Saint-Germain sporting director will work closely with Maldini on the new Azzurri project. The pair return to the same project after their shared experiences at club level at Milan.

Under president Giovanni Malago, the main priority will be to choose a new coach for the Italian national team. Stefano Pioli is currently the favourite, with Mancini and Conte also on the list.

This change comes after a difficult period for Italy, which has recorded significant absences in recent world championships.
