The Italian national team head coach has not hidden his intent of taking the AC Milan striker for the European Championships to be played
in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Poland-c2983.
Antonio Cassano has been out of action since late October, when he suffered a mini stroke on Milan’s trip back from Rome. The striker had a heart surgery
in November, and he has been recovering from it since then.
The striker has been advised to slowly make his way back into action so that he could his make his heart strong enough to play regular football. The former
AS Roma striker started light training some time back, and he finally had a training session with his Milanello team-mates last week. However, the training involved stretching and running, and he was not involved in the full training program.

The team doctors are being extremely careful to throw the forward in to the hustle and bustle of professional football, given the sensitivity of his surgery.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Antonio-Cassano-c6302 is one of the strikers that Prandelli is hopeful of taking to Euro 2012, and he has consistently given his backing for the player to recover
in time for the Championship. The Italian boss has been unlucky with his striking selections for Ukraine and Poland, as his preferred partnership of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Giuseppe-Rossi-c15027 and Antonio Cassano had surgeries to their knee and heart respectively. However, all is not
that grim for the Italian, as the two players are on course to be fit before Euro 2012, barring any obstacles along the way.

When quizzed on his intentions of selecting the former Real Madrid striker into the fray of things, Prandelli conceded that he was ready to wait till the
last moment to fill the striker in his squad. He further went on to comment:
“We are waiting for Antonio to be given the all-clear by medical staff,” explained the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926 Coach. In the moment when he gets that news, he will have a
huge burst of energy and passion. We will wait for him.”
The Nazionale head coach wants to take a potent and a creative strike force to the European Championships. His determination can also be seen that they
have a tricky group constituting the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Republic-of-Ireland-c2987.
