Italy are four-time world champions — yet after winning EURO 2020, they somehow went on to miss three consecutive World Cups. In this video, we break down why the problem may not be a lack of talent, but what happens to young Italian players after youth football.

We look at Italy’s successful youth teams, the lack of minutes for young Italian-qualified players in Serie A, and why the pathway from promising talent to experienced professional has become such a major issue.

Topics covered:
• Why Italy keep missing World Cups
• Why Italy’s youth teams are still successful
• The lack of minutes for young Italians in Serie A
• Why the development pathway is breaking down
• What Italy needs to change next
