Matters are tense for FIGC president Giovanni Malagò, not only because of Andrea Pirlo's potential appointment as coach of the national team and his ties with russian betting company Fonbet, but a new controversy has emerged regarding his son as well as technical director Paolo Maldini's son and their work as agents. Nicolò Pirlo is working for You First, who among his many clients has spanish national team coach Luis de la Fuente, while Christian Maldini is working for GR Sports, Giuseppe Riso agency who among his many clients can list Daniel Maldini. However the two are currently not legally recognized as agents as they have not achieved the necessary qualifications. Back in 2016 FIGC president Carlo Tavecchio considered signing Marcello Lippi as technical director for the national team, but soon reconsidered due to his son Davide Lippi's work as an agent had been deemed a conflict of interest with his father's appointment.   submitted by   /u/No_Description_1369 [link]   [comments]
