National team, Claudio Ranieri next CT after Spalletti's dismissal? The details

Who will be the next Coach of the National Football Team? After the dismissal of Luciano Spalletti, following the heavy defeat against Norway, former Roma coach Claudio Ranieri is in pole position for the Azzurri bench.

This evening, against Moldova, Luciano Spalletti he will sit on the national team bench for the last time.

The heavy 3-0 defeat against Norway has in fact led Gravina to fire the CT. It was Spalletti himself, during the press conference, who publicly announced his dismissal as Technical Commissioner , appearing very disappointed both by the decision and by himself. But who will take his place? In pole position is the former Roma coach Claudio Ranieri, who last season managed to bring the Giallorossi close to the fourth place valid for the Champions League after a horror start with Ivan Juric on the bench. There has already been a long phone call between him and Gravina and for this reason the yes seems really close. However, there is a knot to untie, Ranieri in fact is Senior Advisor Giallorossi , so there is to talk to the Friedkins.

Will Claudio Ranieri have a dual role?

As seen, Claudio Ranieri is the first choice for the bench of our national team after the dismissal of Luciano Spalletti. Ranieri, however, currently holds the role of Senior Advisor of Roma and therefore we need to talk to the Friedkins. However, it cannot be ruled out that the Roman coach could play a double role , namely that of CT and that of consultant for the Giallorossi. The FICG does not exclude the possibility and it seems that the Giallorossi ownership also agrees. Let's remember for example the great former coach of United, Sir Alex Ferguson who coached both the Red Devils and Scotland at the same time. After the match against Moldova we will certainly know more. Should Ranieri leave, Stefano Pioli would be chosen.
