Italy Chief coach, Roberto Mancini wants to see the Azzurri ‘pick up where we left off’ and highlighted the need to do well in the UEFA Nations League ‘to avoid complications’ in the World Cup qualifiers.
The Italian side have impressed since Mancini took over at Coverciano and went through the Euro 2020 qualifiers with a perfect run of 10 wins out of 10.
Mancini wants to see his side continue the progress, but insists Italy are ‘working every day to develop’.
“We hope to start where we left off 10 months ago and hope people continue to follow us,” Mancini said, according to news agency ANSA. “So far, our national team have done well.
“But we still have room for improvements on every aspect, technical and tactical. We work every day to develop.”
Italy face Bosnia-Herzegovina at the Artemio Franchi tomorrow night and Mancini wants to reach the latter stages of the UEFA Nations League.

“But Nations League is also important because the Finals will be played in Italy.”
