The opening game of their group is against Bosnia in Florence this Friday, while they visit Holland on Monday evening.

There had been two asterisks next to names in the squad released by coach Roberto Mancini, as Jorginho and Tonali were awaiting COVID-19 tests.

It was confirmed tonight that the Chelsea midfielder has arrived at the training ground in Coverciano and is undergoing tests there.

Jorginho joins the Italy squad, but Sandro Tonali is left out for the Nations League games against Bosnia and the Netherlands.

There had been two asterisks next to names in the squad released by coach Roberto Mancini, as Jorginho and Tonali were awaiting COVID-19 tests.

It was confirmed tonight that the Chelsea midfielder has arrived at the training ground in Coverciano and is undergoing tests there.

However, Mancini decided not to call up Brescia man Tonali, partly because he is on the verge of a transfer to Milan and understandably distracted.

The squad trained today at the Stadio Franchi, which will be the venue for Friday’s match against Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Napoli captain Lorenzo Insigne had a knock to the left ankle, while goalkeeper Alex Meret was bruised on his left knee.

However, a statement assures their condition is not causing concern.
