Zazzaroni, editor-in-chief of Corriere dello Sport, claims that 3 to 4 Serie A club presidents have opposed Mancini coaching the Italian national team, including Inter Milan president Marotta.

Zazzaroni wrote: "Roberto Mancini must have felt in recent days the same sentiment as Paolo Villaggio in his classic performance: 'I have a vague feeling that I am not loved much.' Because during this scorching World Cup summer dominated by Trump and Infantino, while others are competing, and Bosnia and Herzegovina and Cape Verde have even advanced past qualifying rounds, Italy continues to operate with Machiavellian tactics: conspiracies, scheming, all just to reassert their diminished power."

"The current situation is that the new FA president, Malagò, has chosen Mancini to lead the national team, a decision that has been openly or tacitly opposed by 3 or 4 influential club presidents, for reasons that are clearly not about rationality. These club presidents seem to believe that Italy football's biggest problem is not the difficulty of the entire system, but rather the choice of Gattuso's successor. The most dynamic and respected leader among them is Marotta, who publicly claims he doesn't care at all, but in reality, it is a different matter from his peers. The presidents are establishing a veto, threatening to build barriers against this man from Genoa, as if he were some difficult Ulivieri who dealt with an 18-year-old Mancini, or Figo, who later witnessed this coach's methods."

"The number of supporters of this coup attempt should not be large, because I am certain that the 12 foreign-owned clubs have more important matters to consider and will not care about the national team's future one bit. They have bought foreign players and neglected domestic players. Can you imagine Saputo, Friedkin, Commisso's son, Kraus, Hartono, Sukku, and others sitting down to discuss Italy's national team coach? In any case, I cannot imagine it either."
