Zlatan Ibrahimovic is now involved in the negotiations to get Francesco Camarda to stay at the club after protracted talks that have been rife with speculation.
As reported by Calciomercato.com, there is still plenty of optimism at the club that Camarda will commit his long-term future to the club despite a tense few months of talks.
It was assumed that Camarda would immediately sign a contract when he turned 16 years old, but that did not happen and various conflicting stories have emerged suggesting that his agent, Beppe Riso, was asking for too much money in regard to both salary and commissions.
Camarda is the highest-scoring player ever in Milan’s youth sector, having been at the club since he was seven. He also became the youngest debutant in Serie A history this season.
He will be out of contract in the summer and some big teams around Europe are keeping a close eye on the situation. Ibrahimovic has since been in discussion with Camarda’s entourage and he thinks that Camarda needs a different path to what Riso is proposing.
The likely outcome is that both parties meet somewhere in the middle and Camarda signs his first professional contract with the club.
