Juventus director general Luciano Moggi is being linked with a job with Marcello Lippi's Azzurri backroom staff.
Moggi could be offered a part-time role with Italy to take care of responsibilities at the World Cup, including commitments with FIFA, the media and also handling player issues.
Lippi and Moggi have an excellent relationship and while he won't consider leaving Juve for the national team, a part-time role would be considered positively by Moggi.
