Zenit Saint Petersburg manager Roberto Mancini is the top candidate to become Italy coach after Carlo Ancelotti reportedly turned down the job. Mancini tells RAI state radio, "There has not been contact with the (Italian football) federation but, for a coach, the Italian national team would be a source of honor and prestige." Italian media reported over the weekend that Ancelotti informed the federation he was no longer interested. Mancini, a former Italy player, has coached Fiorentina, Lazio, Inter Milan, Manchester City, and Galatasaray to titles. The Italian federation has said it will announce a coach by May 20.
