Italian term or phrase: comunque sufficiente a confermarlo.
Talking about a contract renewal of a football manager
- Anzi, a dire il vero, la clausola si limitava ad una positiva prestazione di gioco e d’immagine dell’Italia, valutazione comunque sufficiente a confermarlo.

My best effort so far is:
- Still, if the truth be told, the clause was limited to the performance and image of Italy, an assessment at any rate sufficient to support this (????? ).

Any help would be appreciated. Grazie !!

Explanation:
per chiarezza ti scrivo nei due modi la frase come la vedo io:
1) uch an assessment being anyway sufficient to confirm him
2) assessment anyway sufficient to confirm him.

Confermarlo - che immagino sia il tuo dubbio - è riferito al dirigente, cioè "confermare X nell'incarico".
Ciao

Explanation:
I think that "confermarlo" refers to the renewal of the contract of the football manager, that is that the clause relevant to positive Italy performance and image was sufficient to confirm the football manager and consequently to renew his contract.
I'm not completely sure but I guess this is the meaning of the sentence.
