World Cup 2010: Italy Have The Potential To Win It Again - Alessandro Del Piero
Del Piero wants a Nazionale call so he can help win the World Cup for a second time...
By Salvatore Landolina
"Italy victorious once again? It's very difficult. They would need to be perfect during that month and a half," he told Juventus Channel.
"But Italy has the potential to do it."
The Juventus captain has also welcomed the idea of playing in South Africa, but he is aware the dividing line is a sharp one.
"Being called up is a consequence of what one does in the league," he added.
"My focus is on my team. Then, I hope the coach [Marcello Lippi] makes the best choices for Italy, and I hope to be part of that."
Del Piero has made it clear his side need to press for fourth place with the hope of securing Champions League football next season.
"Our objective is fourth and we have the will to reach it," he continued.
"It's not easy, but we are working for it."
