On to the Euros: the Azzurri at a training camp at the Forte Village, Lazzari unavailable

The players called up by Roberto Mancini are now 32 as the squad is arrived throughout the course of the day at Forte Village in Sardegna. During the training camp the players will train every day from tomorrow until Thursday, and will face San Marino in a friendly at the Sardegna Arena on Friday. Lazio defender Manuel Lazzari, who is unavailable for personal reasons, will not join the squad.

After the test against San Marino, the players will have a two-day break ahead of the second stage of the training camp; nine players will be called up as the team will come together at Coverciano.
