Roberto Mancini pre-selects over 70 players for his team first team Since returning to the Italian bench, he is whittling down the roster to around 30 players. A number of youngsters who will not become regulars will remain with the Under-21s until the European Championships.
according to SkyAt least seven players will receive their first call-ups: in addition to the rumored Issa Doumbia and Alessandro Romano, Napoli’s Antonio Vergara (who is also eligible to represent Mexico), Brentford’s Michael Kayode, Sassuolo’s Sebastiano Esposito and Monza’s Eddie Coodio.
Mancini will arguably take his biggest gamble yet with Mohamed Ali Zoma. After Albinolev came to prominence in Serie C, he headed to FC Nuremberg. He contributed 19 goals and 5 assists in 35 games Zvet Bundesliga.
As for’oriondiRomano has already made his choice, while Matteo Parma and Niccolò Tresoldi, who have represented Germany so far, have not. Samuel Inacio, whose parents are Brazilian, has made his debut. He would need three more games to become a permanent lock.
The coach is also high on Alfacio Cisse, Constantino Favasuli, Niccolò Picilli, Sher Ndour, Luca Colleosho, Antonio Raimondo, Emanuele Rulli, Mattia Liberelli and Simone Lontani. However, if they were all called up to the senior squad, the U-21 squad would be too weak. If injured, they can get promoted.
Italy will not be complete in this regard: Manuel Locatelli, Marco Paletra and Federico Chiesa are all on the shelf, while Riccardo Orsolini has just returned for the next round. Mancini will adopt a 4-3-3 formation.
