Gianluca Scamacca, Atalanta's striker, has left the training camp due to a knee problem.

The forward had responded to the call-up but, after medical evaluations, the staff decided not to take any risks. This news forces the coach to redesign the attack plans ahead of the official debut.

Knee ⚠️ Scamacca leaves the camp

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Scamacca had already experienced knee discomfort upon his arrival at the camp.

The striker did not train with his teammates and the tests led to a cautious decision: the Azzurri forward has left the Coverciano camp and will miss the matches against Estonia and Israel.

Bad news for Gennaro Gattuso, who will not be able to rely on Scamacca in two crucial fixtures in the National team's race for qualification to the 2026 World Cup.

📋 Gattuso's probable lineup

The 4-3-3 remains the reference formation, although Gattuso might switch to a 4-2-3-1 to make the most of the alternatives.

The defense will be led by Donnarumma, with Di Lorenzo, Mancini, Bastoni, and Dimarco as the back four. In midfield, Barella, Tonali, and Frattesi ensure pace and quality.

Upfront, without Scamacca, the central forward role is likely to go to Retegui, who is more suited to receiving support from the attacking midfielders. Orsolini and Zaccagni remain favored on the wings, while Raspadori might start in a more flexible formation.

Probable Italy lineup (4-3-3): Donnarumma; Di Lorenzo, Mancini, Bastoni, Dimarco; Barella, Tonali, Frattesi; Orsolini, Retegui, Zaccagni.
