Pirlo nears Italy coaching role
The Italian Football Federation has reached an agreement with former player and coach Andrea Pirlo to take over as the national team head coach for a four-year term, replacing Gennaro Gattuso, who resigned in April after Italy failed to qualify for the 2026 World Cup for the third consecutive time. Pirlo is considered one of the greatest midfielders in football history, winning the 2006 World Cup, and has previously led Juventus to victories in the Coppa Italia and the Italian Super Cup during the 2020-2021 season. Currently, Pirlo manages Dubai United in the UAE Second Division, and his appointment is seen as a significant step toward revitalizing the Italian national team after a decline in performance and results.
