"He's one of the greatest player I've ever seen. I had a talk with him about the decision to quit the national team. He told me had no interest in appearing in the national team again. But I think deserves a last chance given to Maldini to perform with the national team," explained Lippi told Goal.com.
"In the near Maldini will retire from football. So, we'll see how likely his last appearance with the national team set. We must speak with him and see if he was still interested. Then, we should discuss it with the Italian football federation," added Lippi.
Maldini has insisted he will retire from football at the age of 40 years. However, it is not the first time he declared his retirement plans. Some people have suggested the legendary AC Milan defender was given the chance to appear for the 127th time in Italy, as opposed to Brazil in London, 8 February. However, according to Lippi was not possible.
"We did consider that. However, for the moment not possible. The game was held less than 2 weeks. So, it is very difficult to regulate Maldini's appearance in the game," said Lippi.
"I respect Maldini. He is a professional and a great player. He has not retired from professional football. We also do not know exactly when he'll retire," he added.
