Baldini Calls for Structural Reform After Italy’s World Cup Exit

Interim Italy manager Silvio Baldini has blasted the national federation, urging a full overhaul of the domestic football hierarchy after the team failed to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.

Silvio Baldini, the caretaker coach, condemned the Italian football administration for its focus on short‑term gains and called for structural reforms. He warned that unrealistic managerial targets and a lack of local leadership were hindering progress, and he dismissed high‑profile names such as Guardiola and Fabregas as unattainable for Italy’s needs. sweetbonanza.qpon
