Overview
- Tresoldi declined Italy's Nations League call and asked for more time, a decision reported Thursday that has put his immediate senior allegiance in doubt.
- Italy's federation has stopped its FIFA one‑time association‑change request while talks with the 22‑year‑old continue.
- Tresoldi has told officials he wants to complete his Germany under‑21 cycle and play in the U21 European Championship before making a final senior decision.
- Roberto Mancini has secured Alessandro Romano for Italy and is monitoring other options such as Udinese's Matteo Palma, who is in talks but currently injured, and Sporting's Issa Doumbia.
- Under FIFA rules a one‑time switch becomes permanent after a senior competitive appearance, so the paused paperwork and Tresoldi's U21 commitment directly affect Italy's squad selection and long‑term planning.
