“For an Italian Coach, coaching the ‘Nazionale’ is a dream,” he told Radio Anch’io Sport.

“I’d like it to happen to me one day, but for now the possibility seems very distant to me.

“Cutrone? I’m happy for his call-up, almost as if it was my own. I feel like he’s my creation a bit.

“We worked hard on him, plus he has great desire to improve in training, and this will take him far. He represents the future of the national team.”
