National team, interim coach Baldini has already decided who will play the next two friendlies

Italy is licking its wounds after the bitter elimination from the World Cup by Bosnia. While waiting for news on the Figc front, something is moving at the sports level. As is well known, before the summer break (then we will start again with the first Nations League commitments), the national team will play two friendly tests against Greece and Luxembourg, in June.

Certa a total revolution. Practically, we will see a completely different Azzurri team on the field than the one seen against Bosnia. Interim coach Baldini seems determined to give space to the entire block of the Under 21, perhaps including some youngsters from the Under 20 and 19.

In this way, the “veterans” will be spared and, at the same time, there will be a chance to evaluate many young Azzurri promises. In addition to the likes of Pio Esposito and Palestra, who are already on the national team roster, opportunities for many others such as Reggiani (Borussia Dortmund), Tresoldi (Bruges), Ahanor (Atalanta), Ndour (Fiorentina) and many others.

In short, use the next two friendlies to see if there are already some young azzurri talents ready for the national team to come. A test to prepare better and with clearer ideas for the Nations League, which kicks off in September. The first challenge will be Italy-Belgium, scheduled for next September 26. The feeling is that something is really moving, at least at the sporting level.
