US EditionLuciano Spalletti: Italy Boss Reveals His Own Sacking During News Conference
- Luciano Spalletti announced on June 8, 2025, in Florence that he has been sacked as Italy's national football team coach but will lead the team against Moldova on June 9.
- Spalletti's dismissal followed Italy's 3-0 loss to Norway on June 6 and the team's disappointing last-16 exit at Euro 2024 after less than two years in charge.
- He took over from Roberto Mancini in August 2023, experienced a four-match winless streak, and acknowledged the negative results forced the Italian Football Federation to act.
- Spalletti said, "I want to end with a good win" and described his relationship with FIGC president Gravina as excellent while confirming Gravina informed him of the dismissal.
- Claudio Ranieri, who recently left his position at Roma, is expected to take over from Spalletti as Italy strives to secure a spot in the 2026 World Cup following their absence from the two most recent tournaments.
