Italy qualified for the 2023 Women's World Cup under Gabriele Gravina's presidency
Gabriele Gravina has resigned as the head of Italy's football association (FIGC) following their failure to qualify for a third consecutive World Cup.
The four-time world champions suffered another play-off final defeat when they were beaten 4-1 on penalties by Bosnia-Herzegovina on Tuesday.
No previous winner of the tournament has missed three World Cups in a row, which Italy now have after missing out on Russia in 2018 and Qatar 2022.
Also on Thursday, former goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon, who was working closely with the men's national team, resigned as delegation head via Instagram.
