Lorenzo Pellegrini has left the Italy Under-21 camp with an injury, so Roberto Gagliardini is called up instead.

Sassuolo midfielder Pellegrini, fresh from scoring a goal in Sunday’s 4-3 defeat at Milan, sprained the internal collateral ligament in his left knee during yesterday’s training session.

He has already left the training camp and been replaced by Atalanta midfielder Gagliardini.

Italy will face Lithuania in a European Under-21 Championship qualifier next Tuesday.
