Italy's struggle to retain dual-nationality talent is a recurring storyline in Italian football, and Tresoldi represents another name on a growing list of players who could slip away from the Azzurri setup.

The comments also put pressure on Italy's coaching staff to clarify their recruitment approach for dual-eligible prospects.
