Paolo Maldini Appointed Head of Italy's Technical Staff Team
Former Milan captain Paolo Maldini, who spent 38 seasons with the club and won 126 Serie A titles, has been appointed by the Italian Football Federation as head of the technical staff. After the Azzurri failed to qualify for the 2026 World Cup, the national team entered a rebuilding phase.
Maldini took charge this week, and the appointment of a new head coach is expected in the coming weeks. The federation hopes the new structure will also give more opportunities to emerging talents.
