Once-legendary Sampdoria is now fighting for survival in Serie B. The "Genoese" are ready to invite a renowned coach who has ties with them as their savior.
Details: Club president Matteo Manfredi previously joked that the perfect savior would be former Sampdoria player Roberto Mancini, who has been out of work for some time. However, as reported by Gianluca Di Marzio, the joke has turned into a very serious interest.
The specialist has only a few hours to respond to Sampdoria's offer, and if the answer is positive, he will immediately start working. In case this sensational option fails, there is a ready-to-act Plan B - battle-tested Beppe Iachini. The coach, who once led "Samp" to promotion in 2012, stated he is ready for an immediate call-up.
Reminder: It was previously reported that Mancini is among the candidates for the Brazil national team job.
