Friday, July 24th 2026

Pep Guardiola will not be the new coach of the Italian National Team. The Spanish technician has rejected the offer of the Italian Football Federation, while the reason for his decision is not related to the financial aspect.

According to the journalist Fabrizio Romano, Guardiola has rejected the opportunity to take the leadership of the “Azzurre” for personal reasons. The source emphasizes that the economic conditions have not influenced this decision.

After leaving Manchester City, the 55-year-old coach has decided to devote time to his family before deciding what will be the next destination in his career.

Guardiola’s refusal forces the Italian Federation to continue the search for the new coach of the national team. According to the latest reports, Andrea Pirlo is the leading candidate to take over the management of Italy.
