Juventus have up to 16 players in their national team for the upcoming fixture, seven of whom hope to win the UEFA Nations League.
Italy face Spain, who will have to play without Alvaro Morata through injury to reach this year’s UEFA League of Nations final. Federico Bernadeski, Federico Chiesa, Leonardo Bonucci, Giorgio Chiellini, Mois Kian and Manuel Locatelli have all been called up for Azuri and could face the Spanish side on Wednesday.
Adrien Rabio is also hoping to win the San Siro trophy in Milan on Sunday, but his French side will have to beat world number one Belgium to reach the final.
While the French midfielder may have the opportunity to play against one of his team-mates at the club, some of our South American stars will already face each other in their World Cup qualifiers.
Colombia’s Juan Cuadrados face Uruguay against Rodrigo Bentancourt before taking on Danilo and Alex Sandro for Brazil, who in turn are also on Bentancourt’s side.
Weston McKenney (USA), Matthias De Ligt (Netherlands), Wojciech Szczesny, Aaron Ramsey (Wales) and Dejan Kulusewski (Sweden) will also be tasked with defending their place at the 2022 World Cup.
