Mancini: It's a pity we never got to see Lewandowski playing in Serie A

Italy boss Roberto Mancini believes Robert Lewandowski is one of the best strikers in the world but admits it's a pity he's yet to play in Serie A.

The Azzurri will go head-to-head against Lewandowski on Sunday when the two nations meet in Nations League Group A1.

Lewandowski scored 55 goals across all competitions in 2019-20 to fire Bayern Munich to a Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal and Champions League treble and many pundits feel he would have won the Ballon d'Or this year had the award not been cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
