The Italian football landscape has seen significant activity, with FIGC President Malagò providing updates on the search for new leadership. During a morning interview, Malagò indicated that Paolo Maldini is his preferred choice for the technical director position.

Malagò further clarified his position on the coaching selection: "The only truth is that I haven’t spoken to any coach; that would deeply contradict my intention, which is to evaluate and decide with the technical director who it will be."
