Italian football was also in 2025 luci (few) e ombre (many, too many). To the economic numbers that certify a contribution of 12.5 billion to the GDP and the production of 7 billion in revenues – but the clubs continue to be deeply indebted -, they oppose each other modest sporting results and in some cases disheartening. Inter’s defeat (0-5) in the final Champions against the PSG it’s a record defeat, but even worse if we look at it nationalforced to face the world playoffs for the third time in a row. It went badly twice, knocking on wood is a must. Net of the strength of the Norwaywho gave us seven goals in the two matches, Italy appears a vulnerable and fragile team on the pitch piano emotional. We are the only one of the big teams that didn’t get a ticket to the World Cup: our football had never fallen so low. Pitiful veil over managers: the farce of Milan-Como in Perth, which was later blown up, is the reflection of the system.
NAPOLI 9
Napoli’s Antonio Conte it won the fourth championship in its history, the second in three seasons. The success in the Italian Super Cup closed 2025 on a high note: Aurelio De Laurentiis He’s not the most likable, but he knows what he’s doing.
CONTE 8,5
Great in Italy, stuttering in Europa. Napoli’s scudetto is his masterpiecebut in communication he sometimes fails. Bad there phrase after the defeat in Bologna (“I don’t want to accompany a dead person”).
BOLOGNA 8
The Bologna of Vincenzo Italian won the Italian Cup: the rossoblù team hadn’t lifted a trophy for 51 years.
RANIERI 7
Sir Claudio he ended his career inheriting a Roma team on the edge of the relegation zone and leading them to within one point of fourth place. Not only that: he was decisive in the choice of Gian Piero Gasperini as his successor. Result: in the calendar year, Roma obtained 82 points. A platonic title, but also a nice message for the future. Another 7 in no particular order: Donnarumma, Allegri – a good return to action at Milan -, Tonali.
PIO ESPOSITO 7
From Serie B to Serie A (and to Champions), always as a protagonist: do not hear the category jump and of footballing quality is the best business card for a future that is all on his side.
INTER 6
He reached the second Champions League final in three seasons, but this time, compared to the knockout with the Manchester Citylost badly: 0-5, record defeat. The 6 is justified by the path taken by the Nerazzurri up to the decisive clash with the PSG and with the pathos of the challenge with the Barcelona.
LECCE 6
The third salvation in a row is a half-miracle, yet another signed by Pantaleo Ravenincreasingly a symbol of the Salento people.
SIMONE INZAGHI 5
He ruined everything at the most beautiful moment: the defeat in the Champions League final and the clumsy farewell to the bench interist. The mountain of money offered by the SaudisAl Hilal can justify the choice, but not the lack of style.
SHOULDERS 4
Italy lost badly against Norway even with his heir, Rino Gattusobut the defeat in Oslo was the zenith of bad management. Lucianone he remains a prisoner of his moons and his torments, despite his years and experience.
FOOTBALL 3
Net of a considerable economic impact that the country benefits from, the national will face i. for the third time in a row playoff to access the worldunique among the large ones. The presence of Norway’s Haaland in the preliminary round it was decisive in the Azzurri’s misfortunes, but it is the system that is leaking: apart from the parenthesis of the European championship won in 2021, from 2012 to today only disasters. The famous reforms promised by Gabriele Gravina I’m still at the “dear friend”, but he, re-elected on February 3rd, is glued to the armchair. To say: “There are no rules that require me to resign, but if we don’t go to the World Cup I will do something evaluations personal”.
SAMPDORIA 3
He avoided Serie C only due to the demerits of others but he doesn’t seem to have learned the lesson: the chaos blucerchiato continues, in defiance of a glorious history that deserves far more respect.
CELLINO 2
The end of an important team like the Brescia it was the last feat of a manager symbol of the fall of our football.
SIMULATORS, DOPES, VAR AND LIARS 1
There are still those who dive into the area at the first gust of wind, those who continue take prohibited substanceswho would even lie about their mother’s name. VAR was an important and necessary step forward, but it is used in a questionable way and incomprehensible. You even lie with the technology.
HATERS AND SOCIAL MEDIA 0
The drift on platforms it is uncontrollable. Last chapter, cancer wished to some players of Bari. The world of Elon Musk (not just him of course) is populated largely by people who don’t own a milligram Of humanity and brain.
