West Ham defender Angelo Ogbonna is delighted to be back in the Italy squad.

Ogbonna is excited by the prospect of facing Manuel Lanzini's Argentina at the City of Manchester Stadium on 23 March and Joe Hart's England at Wembley four nights later.

“It will be an honor and a privilege to return to defend the colours of our national team," the 29-year-old posted on his Instagram account on Sunday.

Ogbonna has already scored at both stadia this season, memorably netting West Ham's Carabao Cup winner against Tottenham Hotspur back in October, before heading in the opener in the Hammers' 2-1 Premier League defeat at Manchester City in December.
