National team, problems for Kean: Spalletti summons another striker

Spalletti also calls Lucca

The national team, which gathered in Coverciano on Sunday evening, is preparing to hold its first training session to prepare for the Nations League double-header: Thursday, October 10 at 8:45 p.m. against Belgium at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome and Monday, October 14 at the same time against Israel, already beaten 2-1 in the first leg, at the Bluenergy Stadium in Udine.

Coach Luciano Spalletti, however, must already deal with a problem in attack. Moise Kean, in fact, suffered a lower back injury in the match against AC Milan and his condition will be carefully evaluated by Italy&#39s medical staff later this morning.

Soì, the coach of the Azzurri has decided to convene also Lorenzo Lucca, who will join the group in the coming hours thus returning to wear the Azzurri jersey seven months after the first call-up on the occasion of the friendlies in the States with Venezuela and Ecuador.
