Mateo Retegui, Italian Citizenship and the "Oriundi" Debate

Serie A Chronicles
In this Chronicles Tifosi Patreon members-only episode extended preview:
Mateo Retegui is the latest "Oriundo" to play for Italy, rushed in ahead of Scamacca, Gnonto and other Azzurri strikers, despite only three training sessions and never stepping foot in Italy before.
Is Retegui the right man up front for Italy, and is it fair for an Oriundo to be rushed in ahead of other players who have been brought up in the Italian system?
And, in a wider political and societal context, what does it say about Italy's treatment of its many non-citizens who were born in, raised in, and have lived, studied and worked in Italy for their whole lives, yet still are somehow not considered eligible for Italian citizenship?
Nicky Bandini and Mina Rzouki discuss this interesting and thought-provoking subject.
