Roberto Mancini is unhappy with his Italy side’s play, and Azzurri fans are unhappy with Mancini: the coach could leave his role as coach to give in to PSG’s flattery
There are rumours of PSG’s possible interest in Roberto Mancini. Could the current coach of the Italian national team be hired by the French as their new coach? According to journalist Stefano Salandin the news is unfounded
Stefano Salandin spoke yesterday at the microphones of calciomercato.it, broadcast on the Twitch TVPLAY channel, to discuss the future of the Mancio. Regarding the rumours of Mancini’s arrival at PSG, the journalist replied: ‘At the moment there is nothing. We spoke today with Mancini and we smiled about this rumour about PSG. Right now he’s focused on the national team just as Conte thinks about doing other things, I’m not aware of any offer from PSG. “
The journalist also spoke about Conte. “A very evolving situation, so many rumours, there are many rumours, few certainties, because then you have to start the pieces thinking if there will be Champions League qualification, etc…”.
“That Simone Inzaghi stays at Inter seems to everyone very unlikely, but for Spalletti himself there are doubts,” said the interviewee. “After a Scudetto like that he could also leave. Conte doesn’t have many offers now, it’s more rumours, he can stay put even a year. Then there is also Gasperini who has this interest from Atletico Madrid, who will probably end their 10-year relationship with Simeone. I would say, however, that reflections should be made at the end of May. “
Salandin on Roberto Mancini’s future and PSG: “He only thinks about the national team “
Mancini was right to call up Retegui? For the journalist, the question is complex. “The problem is that you find these shortcuts for an Italian who doesn’t live in Italy. If a person lives here and does everything here he has to wait a long time for citizenship. There is a big social and political problem, we still think we are what we were in the 1960s, but that is no longer the case. Mancini drew Retegui, but it’s not the same mechanics that innervate for example Switzerland or France’.
“There you talk about players who are born and grow up in the country. A ploy was used for Retegui. It’s right to do so, but if I have to think about whether it’s right or wrong I think that Colombo could have been called up, who could have scored goals like Retegui. The oriundo is usually a second choice for the national team, there are some exceptions like Camoranesi, but they are usually discarded by their country. Argentina’s Retegui had already looked at him, but their league is basically a Serie B league for them.’
