Francesco Camarda and his agent Beppe Riso had a meeting with the AC Milan management at the club’s headquarters yesterday, it has been revealed.
The story of Camarda’s rise has gone beyond just Milan. Sciabolata Morbida‘s revelation on Twitter last year went viral as he highlighted that the then-13-year-old striker scored 247 goals in 40 games in 2017-18, 172 goals in 31 games in 2018-19 and 64 goals in 16 games in 2019-20 for a total of 483 goals in 87 games, at 5.5 goals per game on average.
We profiled Camarda recently, and it seems the club are studying the best strategy for his development. The 15-year-old left Casa Milan together with his agent Beppe Riso yesterday after a meeting with Paolo Maldini which lasted about an hour.
The future of the teenager is planned, and it could be that he will be promoted to the Primavera for next season.

Are this numbers real?
This is an alien 👽 stats.
As far as I know those are 5v5 games, not regular 11v11 games.
They are 11v11 games, not 5v5. They would’ve stopped doing 9v9 games by age 11.
I personally think it’s too early for him.
He is 15 y.o and he basically will compete against u20 side, and at Italy at that. It’s risky.
Playing in Italy is different with playing in Spain or Germany. The defender here will use any means to stop him – hard tackle included. It could give him a lot of minor injuries – considering his body still not mature/strong enough. And he played as striker – he won’t get many space like midfielder/wingers.
If he is integrated correctly it’s good for him. He needs the challenge to grow and strengthen. Granted you can’t throw him to the wolves but you don’t want to stunt his growth with lessor competitors.
