ROME, Feb 3 (Reuters) - Centre Enrico Patrizio will take injured wing Pablo Canavosio's place in Italy's Six Nations squad, the Italian Rugby Federation said on Sunday.

Canavosio injured his left shoulder during the Azzurri's 16-11 defeat by Ireland in Dublin on Saturday.

Prop Carlos Nieto has returned to the squad after missing Saturday's game because of a family bereavement, the federation said on their Web site (www.federugby.it).
