November 8, 2019 17:58 MYT
Roberto Mancini has handed maiden Italy call-ups to Riccardo Orsolini, Gaetano Castrovilli and Andrea Cistana for their final Euro 2020 qualifiers.
Forward Orsolini has scored once and provided three assists for a Bologna side who sit 13th in Serie A after 11 games.
Castrovilli has been impressive in the heart of Fiorentina's midfield so far this term, while Cistana has been an ever-present for struggling Brescia.
Chelsea full-back Emerson Palmieri returns having missed the previous squad through injury, while Udinese midfielder Rolando Mandragora and Sassuolo forward Domenico Berardi are also recalled.
Italy have already qualified for next year's Euros having taken maximum points from eight matches in Group J of qualifying.
The Azzurri will look to complete a perfect campaign when they face off against Bosnia-Herzegovina and Armenia.
