The former technical commissioner of National team Cesare Prandelli analyzed the moment of Luciano Spalletti’s Italy during the exclusive interview given this morning to ‘TuttoMercatoWeb.com’.

Since September Luciano Spalletti has found his national team. The regret is that we didn’t manage to do it sooner…
“It’s actually like this. I see a much more serene Spalletti: always determined, but he is transmitting values ​​in a slightly different way. Perhaps the boys have perceived that they will never be alone, that the technical commissioner will always be there to defend them against everything and everyone and therefore we hope that they can continue to improve.”

And then he found the center forward
“I have a somewhat particular idea about Retegui…”

Would be?
“He’s a striker who arrived in Italy without being conditioned by anything, he’s a type of center forward that we haven’t seen for many years. Old school: from another school, from another culture. Our strikers have disappeared in the last 15 years because since they were children they are used to coming forward, they play for support. Instead Retegui attacks depth, he lives for goals. And then Gasperini, who is an extraordinary coach, will improve him even more: we hope he can be an added value for the national team “.
