In a world where football transfers dominate the headlines, Gianluigi Donnarumma decided to use the same terminology for his personal life. The Manchester City goalkeeper has revealed that he is officially off the market after marrying his long-term partner Alessia Elefante. The Italy international took to social media to share the news, using a clever footballing metaphor to describe the lifelong commitment.

Rumours that four-time champions Italy, who were knocked out in the play-offs, could replace the qualified team Iran at the World Cup have gained fresh momentum.

Italy icon Gianluigi Buffon has opened up on the most infamous moment in World Cup history, jokingly claiming responsibility for Zinedine Zidane's moment of madness in the 2006 final. The legendary goalkeeper believes his own heroics between the sticks pushed the French icon over the edge before his shocking headbutt on Marco Materazzi.

Leonardo Bonucci has identified Pep Guardiola as the ideal candidate to lead a revolution for the Italy national team. The legendary defender believes the Manchester City boss is the only man capable of modernising Gli Azzurri after their third successive failed World Cup qualification campaign.
