Radimov: Italian football is going through a difficult period

Vladislav Radimov, a former player of the St. Petersburg "Zenit" club and currently known as a football expert, shared his views on the state of Italian football. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

This was reported by the euro-football.ru publication. According to Radimov, Italian football is currently going through a difficult period.

Although clubs mainly achieve certain results thanks to foreign players, the national team's level remains low. According to him, there is also a risk that the Italian national team may not qualify for the World Cup.

He expressed these opinions through the "Match TV" channel. For information, the Italian national team did not secure a direct qualification for the 2026 World Cup.

The team, led by head coach Gennaro Gattuso, will participate in the playoff matches to advance from the qualifying stage. The 2026 World Cup will be held in North America.

This prestigious tournament will be hosted by the USA, Canada, and Mexico. The tournament is planned to take place in the summer months.
