The 72-year-old picked up five Scudetti, one Coppa Italia and one Champions League title with the Old Lady, but his biggest achievement must be the 2006 World Cup with the Azzurri in Germany.
Lippi didn’t say he was completely done with football and hopes to ‘be useful in other roles’ in the future.
“I’m definitely done with the coaching job,” Lippi told Radio Sportiva. “That’s right, it’s enough.
“Maybe I could be useful in other roles, let’s see. But nothing until spring.”
