On Tuesday Francesco Camarda he became the youngest Champions League debutant in the history of Milan and Italian football. By centimeters he could have even become the earliest to score in the entire competition, but VAR disallowed a goal by playing a nice trick on him, since we’re on the Halloween theme. The goal, however, will arrive sooner or later. “Sooner than later” wrote this morning Corriere della Seragiven the extraordinary talent that makes him a predestined for our football and, we hope, also for the national team of the future. “We found perhaps even
us our Yamal?” asks the same source.
Camarda isn’t the man of the day just because he’s a kid, but life and football have already faced him with experiences and responsibilities that could make an adult sleepless. This teenager has an uncommon strength and is facing this dream which is coming true day after day in the best possible way, with naturalness but above all humility, an aspect that is anything but to be underestimated but which rewards, in some way, father Manuel and mother Federica .
Last spring, Milan signed him to his first professional contract until 2027 for just under one million euros per season, pampering him between the first team and Milan Futuro. Today his market value is 10 million euros, but everything is destined to multiply presence after presence, even in Serie C, where coach Daniele Bonera and his teammates will need his goals to save themselves.
