Ex-Man City boss Mancini early favourite for Italy job

Former Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is being linked with the Italy job.

Italy coach Cesare Prandelli refuses to rule out leaving the post after the 2014 World Cup.

"The moment we have mathematical certainty of qualification for the World Cup in Brazil, which for me is the only thing that counts, I will tell you my decision," he said.

Mancini is an early favourite to succeed Prandelli next summer.
