The Italy national team continues to experience a free fall in the international FIFA rankings. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
Now, the "Azzurri" have dropped out of the top ten, a situation that has not been seen for a long time. Currently, the Italy national team is ranked eleventh.
This poses a risk of falling into an unfavorable group during the qualifying stage for the World Cup to be held in 2026 in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. Of course, the Italy team is not guaranteed to qualify for the tournament.
It is worth noting that although the Italy national team won the European Championship in 2021, they have missed the World Cup finals for two consecutive times. Additionally, the team did not perform as expected in last year's European Championship.
Furthermore, the team's head coach has recently changed. These factors are affecting the current decline of the Italy national team's ranking.
