Italy manager Roberto Mancini says he is ready to put his faith in youngsters like 19-year-old Juventus star Moise Kean, with the side currently dealing with a serious lack of senior forward options.
Kean has just one senior appearance to his name for the national team, coming off the bench in a friendly with the United States, but injuries to Lorenzo Insigne and Federico Chiesa mean the young star could start against Finland on Saturday.
Kean featured regularly on loan at Verona last season and has three goals in seven appearances for Juventus this year and Mancini, who handed Kean his international debut late last year, has no qualms about starting the young forward against Finland.
