Daniele De Rossi, Stephan El Shaarawy and Alessandro Florenzi have all been included in Italy's 23-man squad for this summer's European Championship.
Coach Antonio Conte confirmed his squad on Tuesday afternoon, cutting seven names from his 30-man provisional squad - but retaining all three Giallorossi players.
Italy are in Group E in France, alongside Belgium, Sweden and Ireland. They will begin the tournament against Radja Nainggolan's Red Devils on June 13 at 21:00 CEST.

De Rossi, who has played in three World Cups for the Azzurri - including the victory in Germany in 2006 - will be competing in the third European Championship of his career.
In contrast it is Florenzi's first adventure in international competition for the national side, while El Shaarawy previously played in the 2013 Confederations Cup.
Speaking on television following the squad announcement, De Rossi said: “Through all the years I have been involved with the national team, this is the time I most feared I would not be in the final squad.
"Like the first time [I was selected], which happened to be the 2006 World Cup, the joy of being part of the group is always great.”
