Italy head coach Gonzalo Quesada has announced a 30-player squad for the 2025 Guinness Six Nations, with the Azzurri aiming to build on last year's promising campaign.
Key players include Benetton's dynamic center duo Juan Ignacio Brex and Tommaso Menoncello, the latter named 2024's Player of the Tournament. Scrum-half Stephen Varney returns to bolster the backline, while prop Giosue Zilocchi is back in the fold.
Italy will be without winger Louis Lynagh, who misses the tournament due to injury. The Azzurri open their campaign on February 1 against Scotland in Edinburgh.
After a record-breaking 2024 campaign that included wins over Scotland and Wales and a draw in France, Italy looks to solidify its newfound competitiveness in the Six Nations.
Forwards: Simone Ferrari, Riccardo Faveretto, Danilo Fischetti, Federico Ruzza, Marco Riccioni, Lorenzo Cannone, Luca Rizzoli, Alessandro Izekor, Giosue Zilocchi, Michele Lamaro, Gianmarco Nicotera, Ross Vintcent, Niccolò Cannone, Manuel Zuliani, Dino Lamb.
Backs: Alessandro Garbisi, Juan Ignacio Brex, Martin Page-Relo, Tommaso Menoncello, Stephen Varney, Ange Capuozzo, Tommaso Allen, Matt Gallagher, Paolo Garbisi, Simone Gesi, Leonardo Marin, Monty Ioane, Jacopo Trulla.
