According to FIFA.com (Divisione Calcio a 5 has not yet communicated the team*) this is the definitive roster announced by the Italian futsal committee, through the squad head coach
Alessandro Nuccorini. No more need to say that this team cannot represent local futsal, as no italian born player is included. Is unuseful as well pointing out that the recent trend of many nations (Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Russia, Paraguay and more) characterized by a mere introduction of south American talents in their national squads, will make these competitions a non-sense event. Make your choice!
* One hour after our news the local futsal committee has released a 15 men list which includes Jocimar (Alter Ego Luparense). The note report that Italy is still waiting before giving the official list, but the 14 men list is closed since September 16th. This means that Jocimar can play in Brazil just in case one player will have to be replaced due to serious injury up until 24 hours before the kick-off of the team’s first match. Information is power, especially if you're supposed to be a journalist...Italian National Team - Players ListGoalkeepersAlexandre (Arzignano Grifo)
