Former Lazio Midfielder Attilio Lombardo has been announced as Roberto Mancini’s assistant for the Italian National Team. Lombardo, after his experiences working with Sinisa Mihajlovic at Torino, will reunite with Mancini; their last time working together was during Mancini’s tenure at Galatasaray. The FIGC announced the appointment yesterday. Initially, Gianluca Zambrotta seemed to be the one to take this spot, but currently, the ex-Juventine is a federal councillor of the AIC.
