Alessandro Marcandalli, the promising 21-year-old defender from Genoa, has yet to decide on his international allegiance despite having a Nigerian mother and an Italian father.
Born in Bergamo, Marcandalli has represented Italy at the U-20 level, but his future remains open.
In a recent interview, Marcandalli expressed that he has not yet thought about which national team to represent.
“I haven’t thought about it yet; I have time to make a decision. When the time comes, if there is a call-up, then I will choose,” he told Il Secolo XIX.
He fondly recalled his last visit to Nigeria at the age of 10 and expressed a desire to return soon, calling it “a land rich in history and culture, my mother’s land.”
Marcandalli’s journey has seen significant progress. He faced rejection from Atalanta at the age of 15 but has since risen to prominence, playing for Reggiana on loan and now competing in Serie A with Genoa.
