The Italian national team could land a legendary manager.
Details: According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Italian Football Federation's leadership is still searching for a new head coach for the national team, and sources say Pep Guardiola is considered the top favorite for the position.
The Spanish tactician is highly regarded by Italian football officials, who are convinced that he is the one who can take the Azzurri to a new level and restore the team among the main contenders for international trophies.
The main stumbling block for a possible appointment remains financial. Guardiola's high salary significantly complicates negotiations, but the federation believes that bringing in one of the most decorated managers of the modern era would fully justify the expense.
At this moment, there is no official agreement between the parties, but the coach remains the top priority for Italy's national team.
