TO TMW Radioin the space of The Editorialthe director was a guest Xavier Jacobelli.

Euro 2024, Spain champion and England bid farewell to Southgate:
“7 wins out of 7 but not only that, a demonstration of unrivalled quality of play. First place has never been more deserved. Southgate has nevertheless achieved excellent goals in eight years, never achieved by his predecessors. The problem is not having managed to break down that taboo that has held up since 1966, but he has shown himself to be a gentleman and has taken responsibility for not having reached that goal”.

There are those who talk about Allegri as coach:
“With these moonlights I don’t think it’s a concrete possibility. The English Federation would focus on something else, we’ll see what the FA decides. Of course the successor will find a team that won’t have to be rebuilt from the ground up.”

Morata arrives at Milan:
“I like him, he’s a striker who scored the highest number of goals in his career last season. However, Milan will need another striker. He’s a great signing. I hope Milan find another striker, but I hope there’s room for Camarda, who is destined for Milan Futuro but given that there’s a lot of talk about developing talent, I hope he can also have space in the first team, with a gradual integration”.

And he’s also looking for a midfielder:
“Samardzic? There are obstacles linked to the player’s will, who remains a valuable element. But Udinese also intends to sell him only on his terms. Otherwise he will remain in Friuli”.

Naples, ADL is back to talking about the bad year and the new season:
“Conte’s arrival has allowed us to immediately turn the page after last year. We needed this coach’s return to the fray for the wind to change. He arrived very far from Inter and it is clear now that by learning from the mistakes we can start again. We will see if Lukaku arrives after Osimhen’s departure, but the Belgian would be an excellent solution for the attack. I believe that Napoli have taken the right path”.

Mbappé at Real Madrid, a presentation that makes us miss the golden age of Italian football:
“In the last two European seasons, Italian teams have reached 5 finals, we must not forget that. The one who spends the most does not always win.”

Will Koopmeiners come to Juve?
“It depends on Juve. If they present the club with the 60 million euros requested…there are surplus players that can bring fresh money to reuse on the market, in the meantime Atalanta has made other moves that say a lot about the club’s strategy. It’s a fluid situation but the Dutchman is Juve’s first objective”.

Abodi attacks Gravina again:
“The real problem is that Italy was eliminated from the European Championships more than 15 days ago. The crisis that has arisen cannot be resolved by bringing forward the elections to November 4th. In September, France and Israel will be in the Nations League and the placement for the next World Cup will be crucial. Not going would be an epochal failure. It seems to me that the football palace is pretending nothing is happening and there is total opposition between politics and the FIGC, but it does not contribute to solving the problem for now”.

Capital gains, the Rome Prosecutor’s Office requests the indictment of Agnelli and other former Juventus executives:
“It’s a complicated story, there are several open fronts and we just have to wait and see what happens. Making predictions would be an improper exercise.”

What will happen to the Church?
“It depends on him, we know how he declined Juve’s renewal proposal, considering the salary inadequate. There is Roma, it is a fluid situation and a lot will depend on the concrete offers that will arrive to Juve”.
