Lapadula gets Italy call-up to replace Gabbiadini
It’s a magic moment for the diavoli striker who netted his first Serie A goal yesterday, helping AC Milan to get a vital win and keep the third spot in the table.
Lapadula, 26, has never played for any youth Italy team and could be set for his senior Italy debut.
The Italian FA has also announced that Gabbiadini has picked up a muscle injury which, however, should not prevent him from being eligible to play the next Serie A game with Napoli.
