For me, Italy's problem starts with the children Now, children only want to be on their electronic devices and sports, If their parents don't take them along or encourage them they won't be able to develop it like before I don't think it's just in Italy, now this is a worldwide problem That's why children's education must be comprehensive, so that countries around the world have good representation in football.
I will have to agree with you that children now prefer to use gadgets rather than engage in physical activities. They will choose to play football in computer games rather than go out to the pitch and engage in physical activity. But this might not be the problem with the Italian national team. Everything in life will have a downtime. The Brazilian national team is also facing a transformation stage because they are not as effective as before. After this time, if certain measures are put in place, the Gli Azzurri will regain their position in world football.
I don't think it because of gadget, there are many young players owned by Italy, just the current league is not friendly to local players. In Italy there is a primavera league that is active until now. but, when they have entered the age of 19 years and over, they do not get enough playing time. While if there is a strict rule, Serie-A teams are required to play 1-2 young Italian players in the main squad, maybe the results will be better than now. Because more young players are being created and grow.
Supporting young players is important because the older ones will soon retire. Making such laws to promote young Italian players is cool. Young Italian players should not depend on the Italian league alone. I am sure that some countries would be pleased to hire talented players from Italy. Football agents would have to look beyond the Serie A for clubs for their clients.
