Francesco Camarda is one of the most spoken about young talents on the planet, let alone in Italy, and the AC Milan starlet has recently been defended after some harsh words.

It happens across the world at every football club, a youth talent comes through from the area, a supporter of the club and people get excited – it’s natural. However, when a player is as good as Camarda is, there is an added level of hype surrounding things.

At just 16 years old he has already been heavily involved for Milan’s first team this season, regularly getting minutes from the bench in Serie A and in the Champions League, and there is a chance that he could feature tomorrow against Hellas Verona, with Fonseca giving the latest injury news in his press conference.

However, there are some who are still yet to believe the hype, one of those being Valon Behrami, who said earlier that Camarda ‘could not carry Milan on his shoulders’, whilst also suggesting the excitement around him is due to ambitions being lowered – a harsh take, indeed.

The Italian Footballers’ Association quickly replied to Behrami’s message, and their message has been relayed by Milan News.

“Camarda being acclaimed as the Pippo Inzaghi of the golden days by the San Siro stadium is a good sign. It has been interpreted by some as something negative, as if in our league we had been content, in order to get excited, with the entry of a promising youngster on the pitch.

“Camarda is young, he is Italian and represents, perhaps, one of the real hopes for the future of our football, even after his recent past in the national team.”

“The fact that a class of 2008 finds space in one of the most important clubs in our Serie A is, in itself, comforting news. It is a moment of transition for our league and our national team, both of which are grappling with a ‘generational change’ that requires courage and a tendency, certainly more Anglo-Saxon than Italian, to field youngsters of good hopes who have often grown up in their own youth sectors.

“We are surprised to see 2008s on the field and we should not. Looking to the future also means, and above all, looking at models that work, at the preservation and cultivation of talent. In England it is the practice; with us a little less so.

“There are many, many reasons for this, but the U-turn seems to have been grafted on, and it matters little whether the reasons are noble or the result of a necessity that compels one to make such choices.

“What matters is that, finally, they are also on the field; with a very light baggage of experience but which, with the passage of time, will weigh (very) heavily in the future.”
