Italy is the home of defending.

As José Mourinho once said, if you want to study the art of defending, look no further than the partnership of Giorgio Chiellini and Leonardo Bonucci.

The country’s footballing heritage is synonymous with the love of defending.

In the modern age, where the responsibilities of a centre-back are evolving, the fundamental Italian principles remain alive and well in the promising development of Diego Coppola.

This player analysis and scouting report explains why Coppola is attracting interest from Serie A giants Juventus and AC Milan, as well as Brighton & Hove Albion, ahead of the summer transfer window.

Tottenham Hotspur will host Manchester United in the UEFA Europa League Final on Wednesday, May 21, 2025, at the San Mamés Stadium in Bilbao, Spain.

The Europa Final will be a perfect occasion for both teams to salvage their disastrous Premier League seasons and miraculously reserve a precious spot in next season’s UEFA Champions League.

It is important to note that both teams are currently 16th and 17th in the Premier League table, but safe from Championship relegation.

This tactical analysis & match preview of the 2024/2025 UEFA Europa League Final explores both teams’ expected tactics and formations under Ruben Amorim and Ange Postecoglou.

The Europa Final analysis will also aim to identify how both teams need to play to lift the trophy and how to avoid risking loss.
