Catania striker Maxi Lopez has put his hand up to play for Italy.

Although capped at Under-20 level, he hasn't featured for the full Argentine side and he is in possession of an Italian passport.

"The Italian national team? I'm just concentrating on Catania right now," said the man who scored the winner against Udinese on Wednesday.

"The blue shirt of Italy will only arrive as a consequence of the work that I do with my club side."
