----------------------------------------------------------------------
Cristiano Lucarelli and Giandomenico Mesto are among eight debutants called for Italy’s friendly tour of the USA from June 7 to 11.
Marcello Lippi named the squad ahead of the Azzurri’s World Cup qualifier in Norway and will perform several experiments in the two friendly games against Serbia-Montenegro and Ecuador.
Livorno hitman Lucarelli was widely expected to make his international bow after finishing the Serie A season as Capocannoniere with 24 goals.
The other new boys are Palermo goalkeeper Matteo Guardalben, Fiorentina defender Dario Dainelli, Lecce’s Marco Cassetti, Palermo forward Franco Brienza, Messina midfielder Carmine Coppola, Chievo’s Roberto Baronio and Reggina fullback Giandomenico Mesto – a former Under-21 international. Lazio veteran Angelo Peruzzi also earns a recall.
The Azzurri will play Serbia-Montenegro on Wednesday June 8 at the Toronto Skydome (8pm local time, 1am in the UK) and Ecuador on Saturday June 11 at Giants Stadium in New York (3pm local time, 8pm in the UK).
Goalkeepers: Roma (Monaco), Peruzzi (Lazio), Guardalben (Palermo).
