Italy manager Giampiero Ventura has picked teenage AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma in his starting XI ahead of Wednesday's friendly with Uruguay in Nice.
The 18-year-old stopper, tipped by many to be Gianluigi Buffon's heir to the Azzurri number one jersey, makes only his second start for the senior national team.
Manchester United full-back Matteo Darmian is also involved from the off against the two-time World Cup winners, but there is no place in the squad for Nice striker Mario Balotelli.
Oscar Tabarez has also named a strong lineup, but Celeste stars Edinson Cavani and Luis Suarez will not be involved as they are both nursing injuries.
Italy: Donnarumma, Chiellini, Astori, Bonucci, Darmian, Marchisio, Candreva, De Rossi, Spinazzola, Belotti, Immobile
Uruguay: Muslera, Coates, Pereira, Caceres, Gimenez, Nandez, Sanchez, Vecino, Gonzalez, Rolan, Urretaviscaya
