As Antonio Conte eyes a Chelsea contract, the Azzurri bench is contended mainly between Claudio Ranieri and Roberto Mancini.

The current Italy tactician's scheduled meeting with Roman Abramovich is expected to seal his future away from La Nazionale. Many believed his place would be taken by Carlo Ancelotti, but he was swooped by Bayern Munich and will not be available.

The current Italy tactician's scheduled meeting with Roman Abramovich is expected to seal his future away from La Nazionale. Many believed his place would be taken by Carlo Ancelotti, but he was swooped by Bayern Munich and will not be available.

According to ItaSportPress, Ranieri is now emerging as a likely candidate for the position. His results are keeping Leicestery City at the top of the Premier League, but apparently his reluctance to renew the current contract is due to his international ambitions.

FIGC President Carlo Tavecchio would reportedly look kindly on a Ranieri placement, having been impressed by his performances in England.

The alternative is believed to be Roberto Mancini, whose future with Inter is currently uncertain.
