Italy advanced to the final despite a shaky group stage. But in the round of 16, it was a direct exit after Switzerland took a convincing 2-0 win against the reigning champions.

Italy's national team coach Luciano Spalletti has received criticism for his work during the European Championship, the 65-year-old has made changes in both formation and starting eleven.

Despite the criticism, the Italian Football Association announces that Spalletti will remain as national team coach, writes AFP.

I am pragmatic, it is impossible to solve a problem by abandoning a long-term project. We believe in Spalletti, we must believe in Spalletti. He must continue working since there are 60 days until the Nations League, says Gabriele Gravina, chairman of the Italian Football Association.

Spalletti took over the Italian national team after leading Napoli to a historic Serie A title in 2023.
