SKY Mancini announces nine changes: Vergara and Di Lorenzo starters
Tomorrow evening at 20:45 Italy will take the field against Turkey in the Nations League. According to photos released by SKY, head coach Roberto Mancini has experimented with a lineup with nine changes compared to the side that drew in Paris against France. Vergara and Di Lorenzo from Napoli will be starters from the first minute.
Lineup with nine changes
By choosing to insert Di Lorenzo and Ruggeri in place of Kayode and Calafiori, the defensive line changes its look, offering more solidity. In midfield, Barella and Romano come off the bench, while Doumbia gains a playing opportunity. The attack sees Scamacca flanked by Vergara and Maldini on the wings, according to the latest news from Sky Sport.
The only confirmations are goalkeepers Gianluigi Donnarumma and Alessandro Bastoni, both confirmed in SKY's official photos, who will remain in goal for tomorrow's match.
With Kean still injured and back home, the starting attack could undergo further changes, leaving room for players like Scamacca to lead the forward thrust.
Turkey will be led by Vincenzo Montella, who has already faced Italy in this phase of the Nations League, seeking to impose his own style of play.
Italy, with the Italian national team ready to employ the tactical novelties, will aim to consolidate its position in the standings and earn important points.
