Italy flop, Gigi Buffon has already made his decision for the future

In the post-match of the nefarious match with Bosnia and Herzegovina, the bitterness on the faces of the Azzurri is evident. Among the most disappointed was certainly Gigi Buffon. The national team’s head of delegation appeared dark in the face and definitely disappointed with what happened. Seeing Rino Gattuso fail particularly hurt him, not least because he was the one who bet on Ringhio to seek World Cup qualification.

When he decided to bet on Rino Gattuso, he had been clear: “If we don’t go to the World Cup, I will step aside.” Unfortunately, despite Leo Bonucci’s call as well, the Azzurri trio failed. Without saying it explicitly, Gigi Buffon made it clear to everyone that his future will be elsewhere. Too much bitterness for not being able to conquer the goal. Room for other characters and new ideas.

“For the correct evaluations we will have to take our time and the sports season ends in June: what I can say now is that in the next three months I will remain at the disposal of the Figc who had faith in me. The biggest goal was to go to America and, this, it really hurts and is likely to make people think in a twisted and not very lucid way. And here I stop. Let’s see how this skein unravels,” his clear words.

In short, the Azzurri trio formed by Rino Gattuso, Gigi Buffon and Leo Bonucci is destined to break up. No one has said it clearly but it would really be a surprise if they were to stay. They set out to win the World Cup pass but the mission failed. Sometimes, it is necessary to take a step back for the good of the entire Italian football movement. Gigi Buffon, in fact, has already made his decision.
