Giampiero Ventura says he ‘can’t wait’ to coach again and explain why he did not bring on Lorenzo Insigne during Italy’s World Cup playoff against Sweden.

Ventura infamously refused to introduce Insigne when Italy were in need of a goal to at least take their World Cup playoff into extra-time, while the 70-year-old has yet to bounce back from his sacking in November.

“After a terrible experience for many people and I, I want to go back to doing the only thing I think I can do, which is going out on a football pitch. I can’t wait,” he told Radio Kiss Kiss.

“Not bringing on Insigne against Sweden? I can’t wait to speak out. I’ll tell the whole truth as soon as I’m able to.

“There are great responsibilities, but there are also things that remain unknown. As soon as I have the chance, I’ll also answer this question.”
