Italy legend Alessandro Del Piero bizarrely thinks Shaun Wright-Phillips is playing for England while working as a pundit for the Nations League clash against the Azzurri... despite the ex-Man City star last playing for the Three Lions in 2010!

Former Italy striker Alessandro Del Piero appeared to mistakenly think Shaun Wright-Phillips was playing for England during the defeat to Italy.

England were in action against the Italians at the San Siro in their fifth Nations League match, however, it ended with relegation after Giacomo Raspadori's 68th-minute strike.

The Three Lions struggled to get going for much of the match, but Del Piero did think they showed some good moments when pressing high up the pitch, although he did think on of England's best players was former Manchester City and Chelsea winger Shaun Wright-Phillips, who retired from the game in 2019.
