Italy manager Roberto Mancini has announced his official squad for the upcoming CONMEBOL-UEFA Cup of Champions final against Argentina and UEFA Nations League fixtures.

Here is the full squad below:
Goalkeepers: Alessio Cragno (Cagliari), Gianluigi Donnarumma (Paris Saint Germain), Alex Meret (Naples), Salvatore Sirigu (Genoa) make the cut with Donnarumma expected to be in goal despite his shaky form for PSG.
