Roberto Mancini is confident of securing the position of Italy’s new head coach. Football Gazeta Express reported this on April 2nd, 2026, at 6:40 PM. Ongoing reports indicate that the current coach of Al-Sadd, roberto mancini, firmly believes he can once again guide the Italian national team.
This ambition is particularly linked to the potential election of Giovanni Malagò as president of the Italian Football Federation (FIGC). The recent situation within Italian football has been a significant upheaval. Italy’s unsuccessful qualification for the World Cup for the third consecutive time has triggered a major reaction amongst leadership figures.
President Gabriele Gravina and delegation head Gianluigi Buffon have stepped down, and it’s anticipated that coach Gennaro Gattuso will also depart. Consequently, a thorough search is underway for both a new coach and a new federation president. Sources close to roberto mancini suggest that he is a leading candidate for the role, driven by the desire to restore Italian football’s standing.
The instability within the FIGC has created a window of opportunity for experienced figures like Mancini to re-enter the national scene.
