April 4 (Reuters) - Massimiliano Allegri has been linked ⁠with the Italy manager's role, but the AC Milan coach said on Saturday he has ⁠not given that any thought as he focuses on getting his team back into the Champions ‌League.

Gennaro Gattuso left the Italy job on Friday after his side's World Cup playoff loss to Bosnia on penalties - a third straight missed qualification for the four-times champions, with federation chief Gabriele Gravina also stepping down.
