After U19 team eliminated from official competition in late 2005, Bindi then call-up to U20 team by Claudio Gentile, for 2005–06 Four Nations Tournament (between Switzerland, Germany and Austria) 2nd match against Austria U20. Bindi was ahead Russo as 1st choice.[25][26] (Consigli did not receive call-up), but as Consigli's backup against Germany U20 in December 2005 the 3rd match.

Bindi also played another match for U18 team in unofficial match on 31 May 2006 as overage player, 3–1 won Juniores Best XI.[29][30] The match was considered as the ending match of U-18 team (born 1988) that season and U-19 team (born 1987) against Serie D Best XI was on the next day.
