Roberto Mancini has organised a training camp for 50 young Italian players. Volpato didn’t get called up.

If I speak…

Well we've got a friendly against Jordan, so you never know

Did Alessandro Circati make the training camp?

Nope.

Doubt he’s getting a Roos call up.

No Roma players were selected because Roma's first team still has to play a European Conference League final and the Roma Primavera side is playing in the Primavera finals, which conflict with the training camp. Bove, Mastrantonio, Missori, Faticanti - all not selected either for those reasons. If you speak, you will prove yourself to be wrong and uninformed as always on this topic. Why do you have such an agenda against an 18 year old following his dream? 

Because he’s overhyped as fuck and is known to have an appalling attitude. His agent doesn’t help things either.

So José Mourinho picks him and he has an appalling attitude? Francesco Totti, his agent, doesn't help things? 

I’ve spoken to people who know him and apparently that’s why he was let go by A-League sides.

Beka Mikeltadze has withdrawn from the All Stars game as he has earned a well-deserved call up to the Georgian national team

Not an Aussie, but well earned indeed. And apparently Boumal has been called into the All Stars team which is interesting, as he's effectively clubless now. 

This is a really good thread. It’s nice to see players like Beka playing well in the a league then playing for their country 

Valpato interview on Optus Sport FB and Instagram pages. Yeah he's full on wanting to play for Italy. Apparently he was keen to play for us a couple of windows ago, but Arnold didn't pick him - good one DH!!! Could have played against Vietnam or China off the bench, but no, not ready for that level according to Muppet Arnold 

I wouldn’t even want Arnold to coach my daughters under 8’s team

How’s that Arnie’s fault?

Can’t pick blokes so they won’t jump ship, gotta pick your best side.

We can’t be held to ransom by a guy who has played 3 games in his entire career.

Best part was when he said Roma have the best youth setup in Italy haha thats why they dont have an u23s lol they won the serie C title last year against men.

He does have some arrogance to him but you need that to get to the top, at the same time normally when a youth player comes through and scores like he did they get rewarded with more game time. Christian just got punted back to primavera which was perplexing.

Yuel started for South Sudan in their 1-0 loss to The Gambia

Yuel started again as South Sudan are currently 1-0 up against Mali.

Matthew Davies started for Malaysia as they beat Bangladesh, a result which secured qualification to next years Asian Cup. 

They ended up losing 3-1.

The Lebanese FA just tweeted this:

“The Lebanese Football Association is working to include the Lebanese-born Rami Najjarin, who participated with the Australian Olympic team in the AFC U-23 Championship, to the Cedars team.”

“Carpenters are waiting until at least the World Cup to see if he has a future with the Australian senior team.”

I’m gonna be honest, I can’t see him ever getting a Socceroos call up but I can see him being a good A-League level player.

agreed. looked so much more promising earlier in his career but now I just don't see him making that next step overseas

I could see him playing well at a-league level and then getting into the squad in the back half of his 20's. 

There’s talk on Twitter of Mo Toure declaring for Guinea.

Mo Toure was so disappointing last season after such a promising start 

I don’t think that’s fair at all.

He made 18 appearances, scored 3 goals with a goal per 123 minutes in a season where he contracted covid which caused him issues with his heart and had his shoulder ripped out of its socket by that thug Spiranovic.

He had a decent season and I’m sure he’ll continue to improve over the coming years.

Tim Cahill’s son Kyah has been called up for Samoa U19’s side

Surprised he hasn't pushed for Qatari citizenship yet to be honest....

They’ve also called up Greg Siamoa who plays for Western United’s youth team.

Jack Hingert has seemingly been called up by Sri Lanka for their training camp in Qatar
