the classic jersey colour of the national team (as properly as of all Italian communities and athletes, different than in motor activities) is sky blue (azzurro, in Italian), and subsequently national team members are nicknamed Azzurri.

"Azzuri" means "blue" and it comes from the colour of their outfit.
