Rarely
The team is deliberately small; that’s the model
The 2006 World Cup squad — without the 2006
That, honestly, is the team we think we’re building. The one that walked into Dortmund and beat Germany at home, in the dying minutes of extra time. The one that stood strong in Berlin against France and sent them « à la maison ».
No stars bigger than the shirt, a bench that could start anywhere, and the quiet conviction that “impossible” is mostly a question of preparation.
Italy hasn’t lifted that cup since. We’ve decided the country’s next wins will have to come from somewhere else, and we intend industry to be one of them.

For fit
Culture and values come first: when we see a match, that matters most, because competences can be learned
