Genoa president Zangrillo: Retegui can star for Italy at Euros

Genoa president Alberto Zangrillo insists he's happy with Mateo Retegui.

The Italy striker has had an inconsistent first full season in Serie A.

After victory over Cagliari, Zangrillo said: "The mere fact that he is an Argentine native who has attracted the attention of the national team coaches should say a lot about his qualities.

"He comes from two difficult seasons, but he is a complete centre forward and it is nice that the national team can count on young people like him and (Gianluca) Scamacca.

"I'm rooting for Mateo in blue and I know he won't disappoint me."
