Italy and Milan talent Francesco Camarda won’t be available for the Rossoneri against Parma despite Alvaro Morata’s injury and Paulo Fonseca explained why.

With Morata forced to the sidelines for at least two weeks, Italian media expected 16-year-old Camarda to go on the bench against Parma on Saturday, but this won’t be the case.

“Camarda won’t be with us, and I must say that we are very focused on young players,” Fonseca said at a press conference.

“These guys have already played well with us, but we must understand they are in a different moment. Our young players are of high quality, so we must choose the right moment to make them play and create the conditions for them to be successful. I think this is not the right moment to put pressure on a young player. This is why they are working close to us. When the right moment comes, they will play.”

  1. He’ll get his deserved debut when he’s hitting the Italian standard age for a local Serie A player. About 31 years old. We never learn even after getting pocketed by a 16-year-old Spanish player in the Euro.
