Dependency injection inside model factory

This is my first question, so I would also appreciate hints on how to ask properly.

So, In my Laravel app, I have a database table with users. For start, I wanted to have a model factory for it. So I took a standard code from laravel doc page:

$factory->define(App\User::class, function (Faker\Generator $faker) {
    return [
        'name' => $faker->name,
        'email' => $faker->email,
        'password' => bcrypt(str_random(10)),
        'remember_token' => str_random(10),
    ];
});

And I changed it to:

$factory->define(App\User::class,
                    function(Faker\Generator $faker) {

    return [
        'name' => $faker->name(),
        'email' => $faker->safeEmail(),
        'password' => bcrypt(str_random(10)),
        'phone_number' => $faker->phoneNumber(),
        'remember_token' => str_random(10),
        'account_type' => 0,
    ];

});

So far, everything works. But I wanted it to be more sophisticated, and I decided to use more specific kind of Faker class, to generate Italian data. I changed it to:

$factory->define(App\User::class,
                    function(Faker\Generator $faker,
                             Faker\Provider\it_IT\PhoneNumber $fakerITPN,
                             Faker\Provider\it_IT\Person $fakerITPER,
                             Faker\Provider\it_IT\Internet $fakerITInt) {

    return [
        'name' => $fakerITPER->name(),
        'email' => $fakerITInt->safeEmail(),
        'password' => bcrypt(str_random(10)),
        'phone_number' => $fakerITPN->phoneNumber(),
        'remember_token' => str_random(10),
        'account_type' => 0,
    ];

});

In seeder class I wrote:

factory(App\User::class)->create();

And then, after I used Artisan, command:

artisan migrate:refresh --seed -vvv

I get following error (just the head, for clearance):

[ErrorException]                                                                                                                             
  Argument 2 passed to Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factory::{closure}() must be an instance of Faker\Provider\it_IT\PhoneNumber, array given

Clearly, there is something wrong with dependency injection, but I don't know what. I know, that in this case I could just manually create classes I need, but I want to know, how to do it properly. Can anyone help?
