Italy coach Antonio Conte says he's more than just a manager.
Conte is eager to work with Azzurri players on the training pitch.
"I must be a Coach for this Nazionale," said Conte.
"Usually the CT is just a selector, but I want to be anything except a selector. The reason I took on this challenge is to make the Nazionale like a club.
"Of course I'd love to become like Enzo Bearzot or the others for what they have won, but primarily I'd like to be a real Coach for this side."
