Italy Tests Pirlo as Coach After Guardiola Apology
Reports indicate that Andrea Pirlo is close to taking on the role of Italy's national football team coach after failing to convince Guardiola and unsuccessful negotiations with Ancelotti. An official announcement of his appointment is expected within a few days. This option was considered after Pirlo agreed to a contract that extends until the end of the 2030 World Cup, with an annual salary of approximately 1.5 million euros, which is significantly lower than the expected demands of Guardiola. Pirlo faces major challenges in restoring the team's status, especially since he has never previously coached the national team in a full capacity. He hopes to lead Italy out of its current crisis following their failure to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.
