Udinese striker Antonio Di Natale is relishing the chance to play on the international stage again after being recalled to the Italy squad.
It was announced earlier in the week that the 34-year-old and Manchester City forward Mario Balotelli are set to lead the attack for Cesare Prandelli’s men in a friendly against the USA on February 29 in Genoa.
“What can I say? I am happy and enthusiastic,” Di Natale told Il Corriere dello Sport.
“(Cesare) Prandelli and I haven’t spoken much, but there’s a deep respect between us.”
Di Natale has scored 10 goals in 36 international appearances for Italy.
