Italy coach Antonio Conte on Saturday called up an additional 14 players to his squad for Tuesday's friendly with Albania in Genoa.

Defender Francesco Acerbi returns after a two-year absence while receiving treatment for testicular cancer for the game which follows Sunday's Euro 2016 qualifier against Croatia in Milan.

Three players received their first international call-ups -- Luca Rossettini, Stefano Sturaro and Stefano Okaka.

Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci, suspended for the date with Croatia, also figures in the list.
