At the European Championship in Germany, Italian soccer coaches are making a significant mark, with five national teams under their leadership. Among them is Italy's own coach Luciano Spalletti, joined by Vincenzo Montella (Turkey), Domenico Tedesco (Belgium), Marco Rossi (Hungary), and Francesco Calzona (Slovakia).

This quintet surpasses the previous record held by Dutch coaches at Euro 2008, where three Netherlands coaches managed teams. This trend underscores the notable influence of Italy's coaching school, directed by former coach Renzo Ulivieri, who currently presides over the Italian soccer coaches' association.

Ulivieri emphasized, 'It's a great source of pride for Italian soccer, particularly for our coaching school. Our coaches are well-prepared due to a robust training system and practical experience in both professional and amateur leagues where tactics are pivotal.' The success of Italian coaches is evident not only on national fronts but also in club competitions, where achieving tactical finesse is seen as a form of art.
