AC Milan are in talks with the agents of Christian Comotto and Francesco Camarda over the extension of their contracts.
The snub from Mattia Liberali – who chose to join Como over returning to Milan – seems to have got the management in gear. They are looking to safeguard the future of other talents in their youth sector, two of them above all.

Comotto and Camarda: Milan’s mission
According to what we have learned from sources close to Giuseppe Riso’s agency, Milan are negotiating contract extensions for Comotto and Camarda, and there are no other names in the mix contrary to reports.
We can also reveal that an agreement should be reached within a few days with Riso’s camp regarding the midfielder and the striker. Both the Italians have a deal which is currently set to expire in 2028, and they are expected to extend until 2031, though this remains to be confirmed.
The Rossoneri hierarchy have great faith that Camarda and Comotto can become stars of the future. In the meeting with their representatives, the path for the present will have been discussed also.
Sampdoria have come forward recently for Camarda, with Bernardo Corradi – a member of Massimiliano Allegri’s staff at Milan and the new Samp coach – keen on taking him on loan. There is also interest in Comotto from numerous clubs, but Ruben Amorim will assess both in preseason.
😎 well…Today, the management is celebrating the imminent agreement with Riso to avoid a “repetition of the Liberale scenario,” which is “nothing but a mirage of salvation and a desperate attempt to escape the consequences.” The disastrous failure of loan deals like Camarda experience with Lecce was catastrophic by all accounts; a 17-18 year old was thrown into a stifling, defensive environment that didn’t suit his qualities.
Milan move to renew Camarda and Comotto contracts is not evidence of the project strength, but rather a blatant admission of failure and genuine managerial panic following the Liberale debacle. The management is protecting the players market value on paper, but completely lacks a clear sporting vision that would ensure these talents aren’t destroyed by failed loans and poor technical planning.
If Amorim has the courage to gradually integrate them into the first team and rejects the policy of “blind loans,” Milan could lay the foundation for a homegrown golden generation that will safeguard the club’s identity for years to come.
