Italy as a "volcano", Acerbi's racism and the issue of the attack

Italy, Albania's rival in "Euro2024", is not finding peace. "The Azzurri" are not only not in perfect conditions, but recently the coach Spalletti also has to take care of an issue that is making quite a bit of noise, the exclusion of Francesco Acerbi, with the Inter player who left after accusations of racism against Juan Jesus, in the challenge against Napoli. This is the latest worry for Spalletti as the coach is racing against time to find a solution in the offensive phase. On the eve of the two friendly tests against Venezuela and Ecuador, Spalletti surprised quite a bit by leaving out two strikers, Immobile and Scamacca:

"I don't want to make fun of anyone. Ciro knows that he is an important player for Lazio and Italy, but he is going through a moment where it is difficult for him to express himself. Scamacca hasn't played for a while, when I called him he didn't express his best. In the representative office, you have to express yourself as much as you can at the right time. Retegui is in good conditions, Raspadori can play two roles, while they decided to take Lucca as well, to understand what the dough is.

The return of Pellegrini? We have been waiting for it for a long time, I have never had it available. He is a player of another level. I have a lot of faith in him", said Spalletti.
