Luciano Spalletti takes over the Italian national team
Spalletti, has signed a contract until the 2026 World Cup, and will take office from 1 September
Luciano Spalletti is the new blue coach, despite the famous 3 million clause that De Laurentiis demands. Spalletti, has signed a contract until the 2026 World Cup, and will take office from 1 September. Its official presentation will take place on the occasion of the pre-North Macedonia and Ukraine meeting. Gravina: "The national team needed a great coach"
The contract and the duration
Spalletti has signed a three-year contract until 2026 and will take office on 1 September (presentation at the next meeting in Coverciano) — debut on 9 September on the North Macedonia pitch, then an encore at San Siro on 12 against Ukraine
How much will he earn
Spalletti's salary in the national team will be around 3 million euros a year. A slightly lower salary than the one received in Naples where he earned 3.2 million.
From which scheme will he start?
The arrival of Luciano Spalletti will give tactical continuity to the national team project. Like Mancini, the coach from Certaldo will also focus on the 4-3-3 that made Napoli's fortunes. Just from "his" Naples will find some players like Di Lorenzo, Politano and Meret.
Spalletti's national team staff
As for the staff, it is likely that Spalletti chooses to be supported by his historical collaborators, primarily his deputy Marco Domenichini and the athletic trainer Francesco Sinatti. The same goes for the choices of the FIGC, those that were taken before the divorce with Mancini: so there will be Andrea Barzagli, Antonio Gagliardi and Gigi Buffon as head of delegation.
