Italy National Team: A Strong Contender for Euro 2024 Victory
Italy national team will be one of the main contenders for victory at Euro 2024. Head coach Luciano Spalletti is actively preparing the «Azzurri squad» for the competition, while the champion continues to analyze the team’s opponents.
The Italian Football Federation was founded in 1898 and has since played numerous matches. Currently, the team ranks 9th in the FIFA rankings. Gianluigi Buffon has played the most matches in the team’s history (176), and the top scorer is Luigi Riva (35).
Italy national team has won the World Cup and European Championship several times, earning a reputation as one of the strongest teams in the world. It is worth noting that sometimes off-field factors have been obstacles to the «Azzurri» success.
The path to Euro 2024 started with the qualification matches, which the team passed under the guidance of coach Roberto Mancini. Later, after the change of coach to Luciano Spalletti, the team continued preparations for the tournament.
