In an interview with The print, Paolo Di Canio revealed that he had responded negatively to Roberto Mancini’s proposal to join his staff: “I didn’t just say no to petrodollars, because it would have been an important experience in a football that invests to grow and establish itself. Roberto Mancini hadn’t proposed me a marginal role, he wanted me as a second coach on the pitch to train and improve the players.”
Di Canio continues: “His esteem made me proud, also because we don’t have a special relationship: a few games of padel, a chat and nothing more, so if he thought of me it’s because he believes in my ideas and my work. I want to thank him , together with the AFF contracts manager Abdallah: it wasn’t easy to decide, I hesitated for a long time, in the end I chose to follow my heart”.
