Yesterday, after the spectacular performance of Sandro Tonali with AC Milan against Atalanta, Coach Roberto Mancini decided to invite the former Brescia star to the senior team in view of the Nations League games.
Now, news arrive that the player will not join the national team of Italy after all. The situation is that coach of Italy U-21 needed the services of Tonali and Mancini agreed to let the youngster remain there for now.
Instead of the Milan number 8, and to replace the injured Pessina, Robert Mancini called up Inter's full-back Federico Dimarco.
Sandro Tonali is proving this season what he is all about. The player has matured as he has shown signs of great growth. He is still young and he will certainly receive another call-up with the First Team of Italy in the near future.
