Italy\u2019s football reset has taken another major turn. Gianluigi Buffon has officially resigned from his role within the Italian Football Federation, becoming the latest high-profile exit after a disastrous period for the national team.<\/p>\n
The decision follows the recent departures of head coach Gennaro Gattuso and federation president Gabriele Gravina. Together, these exits confirm a complete breakdown of the existing structure after Italy failed to qualify for a third consecutive FIFA World Cup.<\/p>\n
Buffon, one of Italy\u2019s most iconic figures, had taken up a role within the federation after his retirement from professional football. His presence was seen as a key link between the past success of Italian football and its rebuilding phase. However, the latest failure has led to sweeping changes across all levels.<\/p>\n
Sources indicate that Buffon decided to step down as part of a wider reset within the federation. The move reflects the seriousness of the situation, with Italy now under pressure to rebuild both leadership and identity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
