Fundamental reforms are needed in Italian football
The failure of the Italian national team to qualify for the 2026 World Cup has sparked sharp dissatisfaction in the country's sports policy. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
Sports Minister Andrea Abodi commented on the situation, emphasizing the need for a fundamental reform of Italian football. It should be recalled that under the leadership of head coach Gennaro Gattuso, the national team missed the opportunity in the decisive match against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
As a result, Italy failed to participate in the World Cup for the third consecutive time. According to Minister Abodi, football in Italy is not just a sport but an important part of culture and international prestige.
Therefore, the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) leadership needs to restructure the system through personnel changes. According to him, football holds great significance for the younger generation in Italy, and they regret that they have never had the chance to watch World Cup matches live.
Moreover, during times of economic and military crises, football was supposed to be a social ritual and a source of joy for the population, but consecutive defeats have eliminated this possibility. At the same time, pressure on the leadership of the Italian Football Federation has risen to the state level.
