This is the team I'm going to go to.

Former Albanian National coach Giovanni De Biasi is spending quiet holidays apparently, but has in fact begun to crystallise his new destination. Following experiences at the level of clubs in Italy and Spain, as well as representatives in Albania, the Italian technician has looked into the Asian continent.

I don't have a crystallized “And I don't have a crystallized choice of China or Japan, because I have some contacts, but I would personally prefer Japan, although as a country I find it too strict and cold in the way of life overall”, é told the V IP Sport Italian-Albanian 60-year-old during a telephone link from Italy.

-Gianni, welcome to VIP Sports. How are you spending your time as Albania's most successful coach?

- Thank you so much for your invitation and success portal. I'm resting with my family and friends. I don't have any experience right now. Almost zero. I do nothing but read books, from which I can at no time give up. It seems to me that this rest has been necessary and necessary for me. The reasons are understood.

Christian Panucci is your successor, the third Italian coach to run the National. What would you say?

Panucci was a great player with character and personality. We all know there's no great experience as an international coach, but I'm convinced it will succeed. But let's not forget that in case I five years ago had to get my team back, Panucci almost has it. A few things he may need. He has conditions for this. Anyway, he's the coach and of course he has his own ideas. I repeat, I am convinced that it is a good choice. I wish them luck, since we have a difficult group.

-The last part of the Committee for World Qualification “Russia 2018x1> is against Italy. Do you regret not being at the bank?

- Of course I do. Yet again another Italian is Albania's coach. I don't want to make more comments.

- The meals will one day be over. What will be your new destination?

- There's been a lot of rumors, but I'm looking at several championships in Europe, clubs I've previously rejected for many reasons, including the integration with Albania.

- You haven't got a clear lead yet?

- Okay! I got something, I can't deny it. I still don't have it crystallized who I should choose China or Japan, as I have some concrete contacts from both countries. Personally, I would prefer Japan, although as a country I find it too strict and cold in general for life. They are completely different from Italy and Albania. Anyway, in a few weeks I'm gonna decide where I'm going.

- In an interview I conducted a few years ago with your predecessor in the National, the late Josip Kuze, told me he couldn't fit in when he led Gamba Ozaka (1996-1997).

- I have some Japanese friends, with a young engineer I was in the English class in Malta, when I was Albania's coach.

-Alberto Zaccheroni, one of your friends has been leading Japan National for four years (2010-2014), can we see you as a samurai on the Japanese bench?

- Dear Love, let's give him time. I'll call you before I sign.

The other day he introduced himself to Partizan, Mark Luliano as the new, fourth Italian coach at this club. The first three failed to win the title. You know Iuliano, how do you see his approach from Luciano Moggi?

-Luliano's a big player. International calibre. A very educated man. I know him very well as a player, but not as a coach, since he led a team that I couldn't possibly follow. I can't give him an assessment, but I'm convinced he knows the football field very well and will do good for Partizan.

- You followed the Albanians of Italy?

- Yes, as always. I think Thomas Strakosha will be out for his games at Lazio. He needs continuity. Erit Berisha made extraordinary presentations to Atalanta. Smart investment. Lady Memushaj is more mature. An important player at Pescara.

There's been a lot of talk about Elseid Hyesey of Juventus...

- The Italian staff is known for rumors in time of marble. I don't think Naples releases it without a salty price. Hysaine is looking for half of the big clubs in Europe, for more than that Naples itself is a big team, and the new season I see a championship president in Italy.

-You voted for the first time in Albania. How did you feel at that moment?

-With Albania they connect me to five and a half years of the most beautiful of my life. I had a great time. I met with the country's top leaders -- presidents Bamir Topi and Bujar Nishani; Prime Ministers Sali Berisha and Edi Rama, trainers, old and young footballers, but and ordinary people? You know how fans followed us everywhere. I feel Albanian, and I didn't have to do my duty, just as I did in Italy.

-Now the results and the winners know. Who did Gianni De Biassi vote for?

- You ask me that too? You need some more blood or my credit card pin code?
