The reigning European champions have been drawn in qualifying Group C with England, Ukraine, North Macedonia and Malta for Euro 2024."I knew that we would get either England or France, but it's OK. It's a decent five-team group, no easy matches, all ones we can have a go at," said Italy head coach Roberto Mancini.
