Italy boss Roberto Mancini will make wholesale changes to his starting XI for Tuesday's international friendly with Turkey.
The Blues incredibly lost 1-0 to North Macedonia in their World Cup playoff semi-final on Thursday, meaning that they will not feature at this year's competition.
Marco Verratti, Jorginho, Ciro Immobile, Lorenzo Insigne, Domenico Berardi and Gianluca Mancini have all been released from the squad ahead of this match.
Gianluca Scamacca, Andrea Belotti, Nicolo Zaniolo and Leonardo Bonucci were not on the bench against North Macedonia, meanwhile, so it is unclear whether they will be involved against Turkey here.
The team will certainly be much changed from the one that started on Thursday, with Lorenzo Pellegrini, Matteo Pessina, Sandro Tonali, Joao Pedro and Giorgio Chiellini all in line to feature from the first whistle.
Belotti could lead the attack if he is available, but Politano is otherwise expected to be given the nod, with Joao Pedro and Raspadori in support of the 28-year-old.
There are still four goalkeepers in the squad, and Mancini is likely to use two in this match, although Gianluigi Donnarumma could get the nod from the start once again.
Italy possible starting lineup: Donnarumma; Florenzi, Chiellini, Bastoni, Emerson; Tonali, Pellegrini, Pessina; Pedro, Politano, Raspadori
