Italie : Paolo Maldini et Leonardo claquent la porte
Just two weeks after their respective appointments, Paolo Maldini and Leonardo have decided to leave the Italian Football Federation (FIGC). According to several Italian media outlets, including Sky Sport, the technical director and his advisor submitted their resignations to FIGC president Giovanni Malagò.
The decision stems from a deep disagreement regarding the appointment of Andrea Pirlo as manager of the Italian national team. The former midfielder's candidacy was reportedly rejected due to his role as an ambassador for a Russian sports betting company, a factor deemed incompatible with the federation's requirements.
Faced with this situation, Paolo Maldini and Leonardo chose to step down from their positions, barely two weeks after taking office, plunging the FIGC into a new period of uncertainty.
To fill this void, Giovanni Malagò is now considering entrusting the position of technical director to Giorgio Chiellini, another emblematic figure of Italian football, in order to revive the sporting project of the national team.
