Former Italy coach Roberto Mancini has resigned due to a disagreement with the President of the Italian Football Federation, Gabriel Gravina. Transmits words Republic.
“I tried to convey to Gravina that I needed a comfortable working environment. He couldn’t guarantee it, so I resigned as a result. This is my personal choice.
Gravina spent a year trying to change the structure of the coaching staff. I informed him that he could bring in a few new experts, but he would not be able to dismiss the people I worked with and the Italian team won the European Championship 2020. In any case, the decision to replace employees is up to me.
Recently, we disagree with him several times in our views. But why get involved in personnel matters? One of my pros just got contracted and he (Gravina) played on it. Of course I could have been tougher, but I thought he understood everything.
If Gravina wanted to, she would have hired me. One tip would have been enough for me to stay, but he didn’t want it,” said the expert.
The 58-year-old coach has terminated his contract, which is valid until 2024. Under his leadership, the Italian team won Euro 2020 and broke the world record without losing 37 games in a row.
Mancini spent one season at St. Petersburg “Zenith” led. Together with him, the club took fifth place in the ranking of the Russian championship after the results of the 2017/18 season.
During his managerial career, Mancini became the English champion with Manchester City, the Italian Cup with Fiorentina, and the Turkish Cup champion at the head of Galatasaray.
