Mancini declined to lead Sampdoria but still aids his former club

Recently, reports surfaced that former Italy national team head coach Roberto Mancini received an offer from Sampdoria. It is known what the specialist's response was.

Details: According to ANSA, Mancini declined to take charge of Sampdoria, but still extended a helping hand to his former club. The team was taken over by Mancini's former assistants in the Italy national team, Alberico Evani and Attilio Lombardo. Mancini himself also visited the team's training center on Wednesday.

Reminder: Sampdoria is third from the bottom in the six remaining matches, trailing the safety zone by three points, from which four teams are relegated to the third division.

As a player, the 60-year-old Mancini helped Sampdoria win the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1990, the Serie A title in 1991, and reach the final of the European Cup in 1992.
