Roberto Mancini held a press conference today to introduce Italy's squad for their Nations League games. The news conference commenced at 14:00 CET, taking place at the Italy training center in Coverciano, Florence. This marks Mancini's second press conference since his return as the Azzurri boss last July, with a contract extension until 2030.
The Italian Football Association was among the accredited media present at the event. Mancini has revealed a 34-man squad for the upcoming four games. These include matches against Belgium (hosted), Turkey (hosted and away), and France (away).
There have been alterations to the original 34-man roster. Notably, Bryan Cristante and Federico Dimarco, who were initially part of the squad, are unable to play due to fitness concerns. They have been replaced by Samuele Ricci from Como and Matteo Ruggeri of Aston Villa.
