Matteo Palma would choose Italy and be called up for Nations League

Defender Matteo Palma, a former German youth international, has reportedly chosen to represent Italy. According to t-online, this choice would be a setback for the German Football Association (DFB), which would lose a promising talent.

According to Transfermarkt, Palma has reportedly received his first call-up with Italy for the Nations League. The player, trained in Germany, would therefore be retained by the Italian national team for this competition.

Both media outlets agree that the DFB will have to do without this young defender for its future plans.
