Giovanni Malagò is elected president of the FIGC and promises a revolution in Italian football
Giovanni Malagò was elected new president of the FIGC and intends to implement a revolution in Italian football, with Antonio Conte as a potential coach and Paolo Maldini as technical director.
The new era of Italian football officially began on Monday 22 June with the election of Giovanni Malagò as the new president of the FIGC. Now, Malagò has the mission of leading the recovery of a movement that, in recent years, has faced serious difficulties. According to information from the newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport, the new president plans a revolution with Antonio Conte standing out as a candidate for coach of the national team, while Paolo Maldini could take on the role of technical director. Expectations are high around Maldini's response, who is an emblematic figure at Milan, while Conte's future still requires more negotiations. Malagò believes he can use his credibility, built over years of success, to convince Conte to take on this responsibility, which also involves an emotional choice. "Alone I can do nothing, together we can do everything", said Malagò. After three consecutive eliminations of the Italian team in the World Cups, it is clear that the country needs a profound transformation in several aspects, something that Malagò is aware of. Yesterday, he addressed several of these issues, highlighting the importance of restructuring the team with the right people in the right places, starting with the positions left open by Buffon and Gattuso after the fateful night in Zenica.
