Europa League as a showcase to put himself on display and try to earn more playing time. Francesco Camarda’s Rossoneri future runs through Thursday’s European matches, with the youngster eager to play and ,despite his young age (18), aiming to feature more regularly. That is why he could pack his bags in January and go on loan elsewhere.
Perhaps the best solution for the development of the 2008-born player, who so far, in the Devil’s first 13 matches of the season, has had to settle for scraps. Just 96 minutes in total on the pitch between Europe (60 minutes as a starter against Salzburg) and Serie A (four substitute appearances for a meagre total of 36 minutes).
Too little to truly feel like a protagonist and, at the same time, be able to make an impact on the pitch and leave his mark. All the more so considering Ramos’s goalscoring difficulties, one might have expected Amorim to make greater use of him.
It was Amorim himself who, in the summer, had blocked Camarda’s departure from Milan (with interest from four Serie A clubs and half of Serie B) to promote him to backup striker after an impressive pre-season.
Now, however, Milan’s young gem risks losing a second consecutive season after the previous one spent at Lecce more on the sidelines than on the pitch.
That is why the possibility of a six-month loan could gain momentum, given that Milan are looking around in the transfer market for forwards and Amorim sometimes uses Cisse as a false nine.
In other words, rather than increasing, opportunities are shrinking for Camarda, who is attracting interest from Pisa in Serie B. In the city of the 'Leaning Tower', he could follow in the footsteps of Pio Esposito at Spezia and build momentum for a return to the Rossoneri as a protagonist, as relayed via Tuttosport in this morning's print edition.
Keep an eye also on Monza and Frosinone, who appreciate the striker. That is why tomorrow’s match against Ferencvaros already seems like a crossroads.
