Zerafa, who plays for Ħamrun Spartans, had been called up to the national squad under Pietro Ghedin but is yet to make his senior debut while Apap, a key member of the Victoria Hotspurs squad that won the league and KO in Gozo, played under Farrugia in the latter’s second spell as Malta Under-21 coach.
Arezzo defender Muscat had been included in Farrugia’s initial list but pulled out as he is undergoing rehabilitation for a knee injury in Italy.
