Sassuolo striker Andrea Pinamonti is upset with Italy coach Roberto Mancini.

Mancini has stated there's no young Italian strikers playing regularly in Serie A.

Pinamonti responded: It can be bothersome, because there are, and I'm not talking about myself. It's also an incentive to do more and more and make those who say that believe it."

He was then asked about Italy's struggles to produce reliable strikers.

That's a question you don't have to ask me, if there are people who don't believe it, you have to ask them."

He was also asked about Tigre's Italy striker Retegui.

I saw very little of the matches, I had more important commitments. I was sorry not to see them but anyway he scored two goals and helped the team win, I'm happy for him."
