The great head coach of the Italian national team, Gennaro Gattuso, found himself at the center of a resonant scandal after his statements about a possible career extension.

After failing to qualify for the playoffs at the 2026 World Cup against the national team of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Fahivets stated in an interview with Russian ZMI that he does not exclude the option of working in the Russian Federation.

" First, I need to take a look at the propositions. I want to trenuvati. If I find a compatible proposition, I will be ready to look at it. I would like to try it in one of the Russian clubs,” said Gennaro Gattuso.

The statement had a wide resonance among the football community, taking into account the current political context and the limited participation of Russian clubs and teams in international tournaments.

It seems likely that throughout Gennaro Gattuso’s career he has been a part of low-profile clubs such as Milan, Napoli, Valencia, Marseille and Hajduk Split..
