Del Piero scored in the 4-0 win over Reggina.
“Del Piero is incredible,” Ranieri told Rai. “He feels like a pivotal player within this brand new Juventus. To me he is the flag-bearer of a new generation.
“To me he deserves to play for Italy. But nobody knows him better than Lippi who used to be his mentor.
“But Lippi must do with the new generation. When he feels the time is right, I am sure he will call him up.”
