Fiorentina striker Giuseppe Rossi has expressed his gratitude to Italy boss Cesare Prandelli for ending his international exile.
The 26-year-old has received his first call-up after exactly two years, having last featured for the Azzurri in the Euro 2012 qualifier against Serbia.
Rossi has returned to the international fold following an impressive start to the season and he is delighted to be back.
“I am delighted and very proud to return to wear the blue shirt,” Rossi told reporters. “It’s been a long time.
“I have to thank Prandelli for this call-up. Without a doubt I will do everything possible to repay the faith shown in me. I want to do my very best in this shirt.”
Having already scored 5 league goals this season, Giuseppe Rossi is 9.00 (8/1) with bet365 to end the campaign as top goalscorer in Serie A.
