Coach Baldini stated, “I don’t have the curriculum to be a national team coach. This is something I’ve always said and I don’t need to hide it. The focus isn’t on young players, but on making market deals with older ones.”
The coach expressed that the exclusion from the World Cup is due to Italian football being run by directors who primarily think about their own interests.
Baldini: “I don’t have the curriculum to be a national team coach. Italian football in the hands of directors who think of their own interests”
The coach acknowledged, “I don’t need to hide it; these are things I’ve always said. Young players are not prioritized; instead, the market focuses on signing older players.”
Baldini: “I lack the qualifications for the national team coach position. The Italian football system is controlled by directors pursuing their personal agendas.”
The coach admitted, “I must be honest and state that I don’t possess the necessary qualifications to be the national team coach. This is a sentiment I’ve consistently voiced and have no reason to conceal. The current approach in Italian football does not emphasize nurturing young talent; rather, it prioritizes market acquisitions of experienced, older players.”
He further elaborated that Italy’s absence from the World Cup stems from the Italian football landscape being dominated by directors who are more concerned with their individual benefits than with the sport’s overall well-being.
