Raoul Bellanova is also on the list of players called up by Luciano Spalletti for Italy-Germany in the Nations League. The Atalanta winger, who plays for Cagliari in the 2021-2022 season, was added to the Azzurri's list tonight: the reason is linked to the less than optimal conditions of Andrea Cambiaso and Mattia Zaccagni, who remained in the group but are struggling with physical problems.
Bellanova will join Italy's training camp tomorrow: from yesterday until Saturday, the national team has been training in Appiano Gentile at Inter's sports center. The first leg against Germany at the Meazza on Thursday at 8:45 p.m., then the departure for Dortmund on Saturday, where the return match will be played at the Westfalenstadion on Sunday at the same time . A place in the Final Four in June is up for grabs, as is the possibility of hosting them: if Italy were to qualify, the match would be played in Turin.
Over 50,000 tickets have already been sold for Italy-Germany, which will be refereed by François Letexier . The other first leg quarter-finals will also be played on Thursday at the same time: Croatia-France, Denmark-Portugal and Holland-Spain.
