He was mentioned as taking over a role with Italy, probably why they asked. Seems that Mancini is not fond of the idea...
Probably best to kill two birds with one stone and get Lippi on board here rather than ruffle feathers when Italy have actually got it right.

Some of us do support the Azzurri, such as myself and Salvo (who I was replying to).
I've only seen him linked to a job with Italy as a 'technical director', it's a supervisory role, but I've no idea what that is supposed to mean in the sporting sense. At Juve maybe it would give a hand to someone like Nedved.
To me Lippi is a coach, when you start talking about these roles it suggests stepping on the toes of other people.
