Italy have qualified for Euro 2016 and there are already predictions for Antonio Conte’s final squad.
The 3-1 victory in Azerbaijan last night booked their spot in the finals in France next summer.
Conte can bring along 23 players to the tournament and they’ll be whittled down from a group of around 40.
Pending injuries or massive drop offs in form, La Gazzetta dello Sport believe they’ve already got a good idea of the names.

Pending injuries or massive drop offs in form, La Gazzetta dello Sport believe they’ve already got a good idea of the names.
These include Sassuolo’s 21-year-old forward Domenico Berardi, who was set to make his senior Italy debut this week, but pulled out due to injury.
The midfield seems locked down, but in attack there are many alternatives and form throughout the season will be decisive.
Players hoping to break into the squad include Sebastian Giovinco, Roberto Soriano, Ciro Immobile and Franco Vazquez.
Italy squad for Euro 2016 (probable)
Buffon, Sirigu, Marchetti; Darmian, De Sciglio, Florenzi, Santon, Bonucci, Chiellini, Barzagli, Ranocchia; Pirlo, De Rossi, Verratti, Marchisio, Parolo; Pellè, Zaza, Candreva, Eder, El Shaarawy, Insigne, Berardi
