Maurizio Sarri is not up for The Best FIFA Men’s Coach award, but CT Milena Bertolini is recognised for Italy’s historic run at the Women’s World Cup.
Sarri led Chelsea to Europa League glory last season, courtesy of a 4-1 victory over Premier League rivals Arsenal in the Final.
However, neither the current Juventus boss nor any other Italian Coach have been shortlisted for the men’s award.
