AC Milan: Pioli calls 15-year-old Camarda into the squad

Quote from mariosapf

Something like that is simply forbidden.
as a striker with 15 against tough central defenders.
and then be surprised when the players suffer serious injuries at the age of 18.
I find it irresponsible!

Well… Camarda actively practiced martial arts for a long time alongside football and was considered very talented here too. As a martial artist you generally learn how to use your body, his physique in particular is abnormal for a 15 year old, he is already 1.84 m. Of course it will still be different to suddenly meet central defenders around 30, However, I wouldn’t be shy; these experiences can only help him in his development. So just do it, absolutely exceptional talents always come out on top when they’re around 16, and the fact that he’s not a normal 15-year-old striker is proven by his statistics, with which he broke all sorts of records. He’s also used to skipping youth teams again and again, he’s 3-4 younger than the rest of Milan’s U19 team, but he’s still impressively asserting himself, as he did recently in the UEFA Youth League with an overhead kick goal against PSG. He’s also not the first player to make his debut at a similar early age, see Donnarumma, Moukoko, Messi back then, etc. … as if they all immediately became disabled because they played a few short appearances for the professionals at that age. And there certainly won’t be more in the next few months when your competitors in the attack are Giroud, Leao, Jovic, Okafor etc.
