Roberto Mancini is expected to attend three Premier League matches this weekend to monitor Italian players for Italy call-ups, according to reports cited by multiple outlets. Coverage says he will watch players live from the stands across separate fixtures.
The matches mentioned are Tottenham vs Newcastle, Leeds vs Brentford, and Aston Villa vs (the team listed in the reports) as Mancini scouts. Both sources attribute the information to La Gazzetta dello Sport, indicating the schedule of games he plans to attend.
While the outlets follow the same underlying reporting, they differ slightly in how many details they include about each fixture. One version focuses more directly on the overall attendance plan for “Italy call-ups,” while another spells out the specific opponents for two of the games and includes additional fixture context for the remaining match.
