Italy secured a draw against France at the Stade de France during the Nations League on October 3, 2026. Roberto Mancini’s squad rebounded from their earlier defeat to Belgium with a performance that saw Bastoni equalize after Olise's early goal for France.

Meanwhile, Napoli's Scott McTominay awaits medical clearance to return to full training, while Roma's Bryan Cristante is making cautious progress in his recovery, targeting a return later this month.
