Giampiero Ventura has called up 22 players from Serie A and B for an Italy get-together, including Milan’s Manuel Locatelli and Atalanta’s Andrea Petagna.
The Coach wanted this ‘stage’ at the Coverciano training ground to get a better look at players who could receive full Italy call-ups in future, as there won’t be another match until 2017.
Naturally, these are all players who won’t be involved in European club football next week.
The squad will attend from Monday November 21 to Wednesday November 23.
