Lippi likes the port of Barcelona

"In Livorno you have the sea and a port? In Barcelona they also have one, and it's more modern since they just rebuilt it." This comment of former Italian national team coach Marcello Lippi (59) during a meeting with a local Livorno politician lead to speculation in Italy that the Italian manager could become the next Barcelona manager.

Lippi, who wants to return to the bench next season, also told he will only consider offers from club teams, since he doesn't want to take the risk of having to play against the players with whom he won the World Cup in 2006.
