First call-up to the national team for Calafiori, in the group of 30 pre-called by coach Luciano Spalletti in view of Euro 2024 .
And there are also two "surprises": Fagioli, the Juventus midfielder who has just finished serving his disqualification for betting, and Folorunsho, a Verona footballer, on his second call-up to the national team .
Ricci and Provedel also return to the national team, while Ciro Immobile is not among the attackers .
There was also no call for Gaetano: the midfielder who contributed to Cagliari's salvation was among the candidates at least for the pre-call-up, however his name does not appear on the list.
