Reports from Italy show the intensity of interest in AC Milan’s prodigy Francesco Camarda, including Manchester and London clubs.
Sport Witness reports multiple stories from Italy about the growing interest in Francesco Camarda. The AC Milan attacking prodigy has been tracked by the likes of Manchester United and Manchester City, as well as the London duo Chelsea and Arsenal.
Premier League interest in Francesco Camarda
Francesco Camarda became the youngest debutant in Serie A after coming on the pitch for Milan at the age of 15. Now that he’s already celebrated his 16th birthday, the AC Milan attacking prodigy already has several clubs circling to secure his signature.
Chelsea have become that sort of a club chasing all possible young attacking prodigies from around the world. They have the company of Arsenal, who are keen on Camarda, while there’s also massive interest from Premier League rivals, the Manchester Clubs.
Camarda has already shown he’s ready for the big leagues, and it’s no surprise that top English clubs are chasing him with intent. Manchester City have an advantage in their pursuit, although there are complications in making the deal happen, per Gazzetta dello Sport via Sport Witness.
Similarly, the same outlet insists that Manchester United are also interested. The Red Devils have been chasing the AC Milan attacking prodigy. However, for any of those English sides, the Brexit rules might come into play against them when it comes to pursuing Camarda or any player in that similar age group.
AC Milan relaxed about a new deal
In Italy, players can sign professional terms once they turn 16, as opposed to England and other countries where the cut-off is 17. Moreover, Premier League sides cannot sign overseas players under the age of 18, meaning the chances of landing Camarda immediately seem impossible.
Milan appears confident about retaining Camarda for the foreseeable future and probably for the next few years. They know that Brexit rules may not favour the attacking prodigy leaving immediately, meaning those English sides may have to wait a while before having a realistic chance to sign the teenager.
