Giuseppe Rossi to miss Italy's World Cup campaign

Fiorentina forward Giuseppe Rossi will not be on the plane to Brazil after Italy's manager Cesare Prandelli left the former Man Utd striker at home. Rossi missed a large portion of the Serie A season through injury.

Rossi had been Serie A's top scorer until he hurt his knee in January and returned to action on May 3rd, scoring two goals in four games for the Viola.
