Italy face Bosnia-Herzegovina at the Artemio Franchi tomorrow and the captain Dzeko doesn’t expect any of the two sides to be 100 per cent ahead of the UEFA Nations League tie.

Italy face Bosnia-Herzegovina at the Artemio Franchi tomorrow and the captain Dzeko doesn’t expect any of the two sides to be 100 per cent ahead of the UEFA Nations League tie.
“I’m sorry that this match comes at a particular time, neither we nor Italy are 100 per cent,” Dzeko said at a press conference. “Many players are missing, including [Barcelona midfielder Miralem] Pjanic.
“In any case, we will try to repeat, apart from the result, the good performance in Turin against the Azzurri.”
Giallorossi teammate Alessandro Florenzi
“Florenzi said that if necessary, he will not hesitate to give me a kick and could I do the same? That said, it’s always nice to play against Italy, but we are unfortunately not at our best now.”
Dzeko has been linked with a move to Serie A champions Juventus but in an interview with Rai Sport, the veteran attacker didn’t share much on the topic.
“Every year there’s talk about me leaving Roma. It’s not the right time to talk about the transfer market, I focus on these games and then we’ll see.
“The possibility of playing with Cristiano Ronaldo at 34? I can say that I’m 34 years old, that I feel good and that I’m proud of this.”
