Italy Azzurri ready for France and Belgium in November: schedule, camp

Roberto Mancini has called up the Italian national team for a three‑day training camp in Coverciano starting at midnight on November 8, before moving to Milan on the 11th, ahead of the two final Nations League fixtures against France and Belgium.

Schedule and location of the camp

The squad will meet in Coverciano for three days of intensive preparation, with technical training and tactical sessions. On Wednesday afternoon, the team will move to Inter's sports centre in Appiano Gentile, which will serve as the headquarters for the final trainings.

For this double commitment, Mancini has decided to trim the squad to 28‑29 players, including four goalkeepers, compared with the 34 of the previous round. The smaller selection will allow more efficient management during the busy week.

The first match will be played on Thursday 12 November at 20:45 at the San Siro stadium against France, coached by Zidane, giving the Milan club the chance to equal Rome with 66 matches hosted by the Azzurri. Just 72 hours later, Italy will finish its campaign on Sunday 15 November at 20:45 in Brussels, on the field of the Re Baldovino stadium, against Belgium.
