The Nerazzurri pampered the 18-year-old attacking midfielder, son of art, once again praised by the CEO. Beppe Marotta. He will retire with the big names, then we’ll see if he can grow elsewhere, but possibly only on loan to maintain control. In Viale della Liberazione (and at home) they are betting big on it
From Fantasy Football advice to symbolic investiture, the transition can sometimes be short. It certainly is for the Argentine Valentin Carboni, to whom Beppe Marotta has once again dedicated words to honey after last autumn’s praise, immediately after his league debut at the San Siro against Roma. The compliments, however, do not exclude a growth path also elsewhere for the talented 18-year-old whom Inter consider a potential starter in the not too distant future. The plan for Carboni foresees a summer of work with the first team, in the meantime Inzaghi will evaluate whether it is the case of finding a fourth striker on the market (as everything suggests) or whether to rely (at least for the first part of the season) on the young Argentinian recently entered the Seleccion U20 tour after wearing the Italy U17 shirt two years ago.
CONFIRMATIONS AND CAUTION
—
“Carboni is absolutely to be taken to Fantasy football, he has already been called up to the Argentine national team. He is a son of art. And step-children are always a guarantee” replied Marotta dodging a direct question on the possible permanent promotion of the Argentine to the first team. Because the CEO certainly couldn’t comment on decisions that are up to the coach, but it was worth repeating how much Inter believes in the talent and prospects of the boy whom, not surprisingly, Argentine coach Lionel Scaloni called up last autumn to avoid the Azzurri threat.Marotta had already spent important words for the young Argentine after his absolute debuts in the Champions League (against Bayern) and in the league (against Roma), demonstrating in front of the shareholders’ meeting last November all the company’s pride in the growth path of a product of the nursery. also the Nerazzurri vice president as well as Carboni’s compatriot, Javier Zanetti, who in the spring described him as “an intelligent boy who lives on football and who, since he arrived, has never stopped improving. As a good young man, humble, he listens and can make a difference at any moment”, said the Nerazzurri idol.
LAUNCHING RAMP

At Inter they are convinced that the boy will make it, even in a rather short time. But there is also the awareness that he needs to gain experience and above all play continuously. That’s why the hypothesis of a departure, perhaps in the last days of the market, is highly probable. Logically, only on loan and with adequate guarantees of a certain space. Otherwise Carboni could also continue his growth path at home, training daily alongside champions of the caliber of Lautaro, Calhanoglu and Barella as he often did in the last season, the one in which Inzaghi began his gradual introduction among the so-called ” big”. On the other hand, the Argentinian has largely earned promotion thanks to his performances and leadership displayed in the Chivu Spring, of which he has been one of the main strengths. Thus, after fifteen minutes in the first team against Bayern and Rome, Carboni got four more chances against Verona, Sampdoria, Bologna and Spezia.
Nerazzurri resource

Only 35′ total on the pitch distributed over six matches, but it’s the signal that Carboni has also started to get noticed by coach Inzaghi. He did it thanks to an average of almost half a decisive contribution per game between goals and assists in the 49 games faced between U17, U18 and Primavera. And he did it too thanks to his first, brilliant performances in the Albiceleste jersey with the Seleccion U20, in which he was the protagonist at the last U20 World Cup just under a month ago. Despite being eliminated in the round of 16 by Nigeria (a match in which he was slightly injured), Carboni was fully promoted by the local press, which underlined his dribbling skills, vision and speed of execution. Thinking about it, Carboni’s ease of dribbling and dribbling would certainly come in handy for an Inter that suffered terribly from man-jumping last season, reaching the bottom of the table for attempted and successful dribbling. The specialty of the Argentine, who placed an average of five dribbles per game last season, could be an added value for Inzaghi’s troop that sips the use of young players. For this reason, the arrival of a fourth striker and the loan (not the permanent sale) of Valentino are more probable.
