The newspaper explains a new name has been added to the Giallorossi’s shortlist in Lopetegui, who is currently out of work.

The Basque guided Spain to the 2018 World Cup finals but took the Madrid job before the tournament started and was sacked by Los Blancos in October.

Nonetheless, Lopetegui would appeal to the Lupi more than the likes of Paulo Sousa and Vincenzo Montella, who ‘don’t fully convince’, although Antonio Conte remains ‘the dream’.
