AC Milan Secure the Future: Renewals on the Table for Camarda and Comotto
AC Milan have decided not to repeat the mistakes of the past. After losing several promising youngsters in recent months — including Mattia Liberali and goalkeeper Alessandro Longoni, set to join Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer — the Rossoneri have opened talks with the agents of Francesco Camarda and Gabriele Comotto over contract extensions until 2031.
Both players currently have deals running until 2028, but Milan want to get ahead of the curve and secure their futures well in advance — avoiding the scenario of negotiating from a position of weakness in two years’ time, or worse, losing them for nothing.
Amorim Wants Them at Pre-Season Camp: A Crucial Summer Ahead
The technical intent is clear: Portuguese head coach Sérgio Amorim wants both players involved in AC Milan’s pre-season training camp. They will be tested in summer friendlies — a critical assessment period to determine whether they can earn a spot in the first-team squad or whether a further loan spell would be more beneficial.
As previously reported on CasaMilan.it, Amorim has made it clear he wants to work with these players from the very first week of pre-season. A strong statement of intent from a manager who genuinely believes in their potential.
Who Are Camarda and Comotto?
Francesco Camarda is the 2008-born striker — the youngest player ever to make his Serie A debut wearing the Rossoneri shirt — who spent last season on loan at Lecce. It was not a straightforward campaign: an injury disrupted his momentum and he ended the season with just one goal. However, getting Serie A minutes at that age carries enormous developmental value, and the technical staff at Milanello still hold him in the highest regard.
Gabriele Comotto, a dynamic and technically gifted midfielder, spent last season at Spezia, a side that endured a difficult campaign. Despite the challenging environment, the youngster accumulated valuable playing time, honing his ability to perform under pressure. He now returns to Milanello eager to impress Amorim directly.
A Significant Cultural Statement
Milan’s move on the contract front is not merely a contractual formality — it carries a deeper cultural meaning. The loss of talents who chose other clubs — in some cases direct rivals like Como or European giants like PSG — has exposed a vulnerability in how the Rossoneri manage their academy pipeline. Tying down Camarda and Comotto sends a clear message: AC Milan believes in its young talent and intends to build around them.
Now it’s over to the players to respond on the pitch — starting with their pre-season audition under Amorim.
