Switzerland U21 coach Mauro Lustrinelli criticized Alessandro Romano's decision to choose Italy, believing that Romano could be excluded from the national team for five years as a result.

Lustrinelli stated: "Romano chose Italy? He should be aware of the consequences. He may not get to play football again." Discussing Alessandro Romano's decision to choose the Italian national team over Switzerland, Lustrinelli said it was not a failure on the part of the Swiss Football Association.

Lustrinelli added: "We did a lot for him, but he probably didn't grow up dreaming of wearing a red and white shirt—he dreamed of wearing an Italian one."

Lustrinelli concluded: "He needs to understand that if he chooses Italy, he might play just one game and then won't get into the national team for the next five years; if he chooses Switzerland, he could play 20 consecutive games."
