Frosinone have added the AC Milan younhster Kevin Zeroli to their list ahead of the return to Serie A, according to a report.
After a very strong season with 81 points claimed in 38 games, Frosinone secured direct promotion to Serie A, finishing just one point behind the champions Venezia. Naturally, they are now looking to bolster their squad, knowing that it will be very different from the second tier.

As often tends to be the case, newly-promoted sides go looking for youngsters at big clubs that they can bring in on loan. This is something that the big clubs appreciate too, seeing as some of their academy products can get consistent playing time in the top tier.
Talks are underway
According to Nico Schira, one of the youngsters that Frosinone have set their sights on is Kevin Zeroli. The interest is actually concrete too, as they have opened talks with the entourage of the player and Milan.
While Zeroli has often been praised as one of the more interesting players to come through the Milan ranks, a move seems very likely. Indeed, he wasn’t included in the squad for the pre-season, despite several other youngsters being there.
He’s currently training with the Futuro and for a season in Serie D, as such, which is way below his level. If Frosinone decide to deepen the talks, then there should be optimism that a deal can be closed.
Too bad we can’t keep all of them, that’s for sure. What we can do is throw in (a) buy-back clause(s)!
At 21 he’s no longer a “young” player. His development has been curtailed by languishing in the Futuro which imo not a great place to be at 19 (Serie D level is not great , it’s Primavera level effectively). Went to Monza and Juve Stabia and couldn’t make a breakthrough. So it is what it is at this point. HAD potential but wasn’t good enough for two teams he should be taken advantage of if he was that good. Time to move on. Maybe insert a future sell on clause. But good luck to him and his career
I see Zeroli as a player who never fulfilled his initial promise. Unlike Camarda and Comotto, I don’t think he has a future with the first team, so, yes, he should be sold.
Milan allowed him waste away to please failures in the first team while other clubs below the stature of Milan incorporated youngsters and have thrived. He has to leave for his own future. He should! APPROVED!!!!
I’m not sure he’s the level, but he should have been given a chance to prove whether he is or not a couple of years ago and never was.
At 21 he needs to press on now with security and regular football.
All the best to him.
