Edy Reja was also in the game, as reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, but in the end, the battle for the bench of the Italian Serie A team from Udine was won by one of the greatest defenders of all time. Fabio Cannavaro, a former World Cup champion with Italy and also a recipient of the prestigious Ballon d’Or, has taken on the biggest challenge of his career: keeping Udinese, where Slovenian internationals Jaka Bijol and currently injured Sandi Lovrić play, in the Serie A.
50-year-old Fabio Cannavaro most recently coached Benevento, where he also mentored Dejan Vokić for a while, now a member of Radomlje. Before that, he also managed the Chinese national team, as well as clubs in that country like Guangzhou and Tianjin Quanjian. He also gained experience in the United Arab Emirates, where he was an assistant coach at Al Ahli and a head coach at Al Nassr.
The former defender of Napoli, Parma, Inter Milan, Juventus, Real Madrid, and Shabab now faces a challenging task, as Udinese is currently in a modest 17th place in the Serie A standings. Frosinone, which would currently go into the playoffs, has the same number of points, and the penultimate Sassuolo is just two points behind.
