Maldini walking away after 10 days and calling the whole thing a mistake is the clearest proof yet that the FIGC is still more interested in politics and budgets than actually fixing Italian football.

You’re right they don’t wanna do the right thing.

Paolo Maldini just quit the Italy job after ten days and blamed the federation for blocking Pep and then Pirlo. When a name like Maldini walks that fast, the problems are clearly bigger than one appointment.

That’s a real fact

@Openminded187A Pero vamos a ver, prostitutas de las neuronas, que a Pep no le podían pagar y Pirlo estaba linkeado a una marca rusa de apuestas deportivas.

@sa10nee Calling people “neuron prostitutes” while defending a federation that blocked Pep and hired a betting linked coach. Peak brainrot.

Wait… Maldini and Leonardo quit after 10 days cos FIGC said “Pep too expensive, Pirlo too Russian-branded”?? Italian football really out here choosing broke + drama over actual glory. Someone explain the REAL behind-the-scenes tea cos this can’t be serious 😭

Yes, it’s real. Maldini & Leonardo quit after ~2 weeks because FIGC president Malagò blocked their pick of Pirlo (over his Russian brand ties).

This is very interesting

When legends walk that fast, it tells you everything about how deep the problems run in Italian football

You know ball

Paolo Maldini and Leonardo just quit the FIGC after only 16 days. They wanted real change and a serious coach project, but the federation blocked Pirlo over his Fonbet ties and wouldn’t back their vision. When legends walk that fast, it tells you everything about how deep the problems run in Italian football.

Yes and it really do need to be resolved in other to take Italy back to the top

FAKE QUOTE❌

Liar .. I'm Italian 100% no isssue no news from Maldini .. this statement is fake ..it 's clickbait .. If you know Paolo he prefers the silence

That's not what he said at the interview. Do you speak Italian and did you hear him saying that?

Paolo acting petty this is so funny actually, bro has obviously lost his spark now he’s blaming Italian football association

Well he’s kinda right

Interesting

Stop reporting fake bullshit

Is this for real?

Yes it is

Lmaoo, anyone knows what has Pirlo proven to be the leading candidate the Italian football back to glory??? Maldini just wanted his buddy Pirlo in charge

If this is the state of Italian football federation, that it is curtains for 2030? It will be 4th straight WC for which they will not qualify!

If this interview is genuine, it’s a worrying picture for Italian football.

Pirlo talking with Maldini after he was denied the Italian national team coach job.🙆🏾😅😅

Well said, Maldini. They need to fire everyone at the Italian FA, who has been a joke for a while. Serie A is a joke. The economy still stagnating and dragged by debt. Tough time for Italy. The only thing going for them is the ultra rich are moving there for tax reasons.

I am not a Pep fan, find his tactics too complicated, his demands too expensive & his success requiring mega $$ but to let Maldini and Guardiola slip away will go down as the most stupid mistake in history of Italian football @_GIFN @SerieA_EN @TouchlineX @eurofootcom @ESPNFC

lol, imagine not signing a manager because you’ve got beef with Russia all because they’re trying to protect their borders from NATO’s incursion in Ukraine?🫵😂 What a joke

So you are telling me Pep is an actually willing and available to coach a national team? @England

20 mio € per year for a national coach? That’s really too much and you should have known that! Also the „competence“ of Pirlo! Stop complaining and be prepared for some pushback at this position! For me that was a sign that Maldini was not the right person for this job.

Italian football is gone.

@grok, is this a ligit interview? Or fake news?

anyone received their X card?

Holy sheet fake stuffs getting out of hand

@stu_gatts @ValhallaOutcast bruh ..

Sencillamente el que esta al frente es una persona nefasta

If this is true - i can see Italy being away from competing for the top footballing laurels for some time to come! Serie A and the top Italian clubs are the only reason Italian football is still relevant as those clubs are able to still capture imagination of top players! Pep would have changed this nations football upside down and bring the needed rejuvenation similar to what Kloop did in Germany!

Saying Pep agreed to the arrangement, but the agreement fell off due to finances, isn't entirely true.

@AssistByLeao @TioDahn @MilanTMN Este señor es un Capitán tanto dentro como fuera de un estadio. La corrupción y el no van en la misma línea. Grande Paolo 3

Where is your source that Maldini said this? Sounds like complete and utter nonsense

Why is this filled with bot responses?

You know you are doomed as a national team when your greatest player of all time comes out to spill this out

He didn’t say that you dispshit , nice clickbait fake farming. @nikitabier take a look.

@SickSide3 There have now been 23 FIFA World Cups and not once has it been won by a team with a foreign manager. So, like it or lump it, the national passion of the manager plays a significant role in success.
