The former Italian defender Leonardo Bonucci considers that “it is important to rebuild” his country’s football after a new disappointment with the non-qualification for the World Cup, the third consecutive that he is going to lose, and he is clear that he sees Pep Guardiola as “the one for a radical change” in the four-time world champion, while he sees both Massimiliano Allegri and Alessandro Bastoni as suitable to join Real Madrid and FC Barcelona, respectively.
“The important thing is to rebuild Italian football from the base, from the defense, You have to have courage to see what is happening so that we can earn everyone’s respect again. and to be that great team that was world champion,” he said during the Laureus awards week.
“There are young people who have a lot of talent, we have to let them stabilize and grow. The only magic recipe is time, and if we want a radical change, the right man is Pep, it is difficult, but dreaming is free“adds the former defender, who won the last title with Italy in the Euro Cup.
Finally, Bonucci adds his ex at Juve, Massimiliano Allegri, as an ideal candidate for the Real Madrid bench: “I see him good for Madrid, he reminds me of Ancelotti, he gives freedom to the players, he is a good manager, he knows the pressure that the Madrid shirt means. If Ancelotti did it well, I don’t know why Allegri can’t do it,” he says about the current Milan coach.
