The Azzurri face Poland in a crucial Nations League clash on Sunday and in the best case-scenario Mancini can return to Coverciano on Friday.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, however, there are growing fears that the Italy coach will also miss the game against Poland with Alberico Evani who would once again replace him on Italy’s bench.

“A good performance, the guys worked well under the guidance of Mister Evani to which go my compliments and thanks,” Mancini wrote on Instagram after Italy’s 4-0 win against Estonia on Wednesday.
