"Qualification in Europe is an important showcase, Spain-Italy even more so: it will be September 2, and the market will be closed.

"Marco will have a clear head, so this should never be a problem.

Is a 3-5-2 or a 4-2-4 the better system for him?

"He’s adaptable, his career proves this. At PSG he’s done well inside, even if it is better to play in the middle because he likes to stay ahead of the defence, and play many through balls: so I’d say 4-2-4, then."

The average age of the Italy squad has fallen, even since the European Championships ended. Is deploying youth the future direction for the squad?

"It's not a trend not only in Italian but European football. Anyway, our clubs, in addition to having developed guys with great prospects, decided to give them confidence.

"And others are growing too. Blessed is he who will be the Commissario Tecnico for the 2022 World Cup, he will have problems of choice."
