Capello Argues ‘Camarda Should've Stayed At AC Milan, Pio Esposito Could Use Another Loan From Inter Milan'
Fabio Capello believes Francesco Camarda should've stayed at AC Milan, and that Francesco Pio Esposito could use another loan. The former Rossoneri coach gave his thoughts in today's print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. This coming season will see two young strikers from Milan starring in Serie A. Inter Milan have decided to bring Francesco Pio Esposito into their first team. This comes after two successful loan spells at Spezia. Meanwhile, the Nerazzurri's city rivals have loaned teenage striker Francesco Camarda to Lecce. Camarda has had a few notable appearances for the Rossoneri first team. However, the move to Lecce will give the 17-year-old an opportunity to play more regularly. However, former Milan coach Capello has his own views on the development of Camarda and Pio Esposito. Capello: 'Camarda Should've Stayed At AC Milan, Pio Esposito Could Use Another Loan' SEATTLE, WASHINGTON – JUNE 24: Francesco Pio Esposito of FC Internazionale faces the media during the Training/Press Conference ahead of their FIFA Club World Cup 2025 match between FC Internazionale Milano and CA River Plate at Virginia Mason Athletic Center on June 24, 2025 in Seattle, Washington. (Photo by) Capello argued that 'Francesco Camarda is ready.' 'If you have a young talent like that you should keep him and let him play,' he continued. 'He should've stayed with the Rossoneri. Especially since Milan are only playing in the league.' Capello anoted that Camarda 'has already passed the San Siro test with flying colours.' 'He could have played consistently at Milan, too. They're looking for a centre-forward now.' Meanwhile, Capello gave his thoughts on Inter striker Francesco Pio Esposito. 'Pio performed well at the Club World Cup,' he said. 'But he hasn't passed the San Siro test yet,' Capello said. 'It's true that Inter are playing on several fronts and Milan are just playing in the league, but if Chivu believes Ademola Lookman is more ready and tactically suited to the project, Pio Esposito could use another year on loan.' 'These are assessment the coach and management have to make on a case-by-case basis,' Capello argued.

Official: Milan sensation Camarda joins Lecce
Milan's teenage sensation Francesco Camarda has now officially joined fellow Serie A outfit Lecce in a loan deal that could become permanent at a later date. Official: Camarda moves from Milan to Lecce Lecce have officially confirmed the signing of Camarda on a season-long loan deal with an option to buy, with a buy-back option in favour of Milan also included in the deal. Advertisement The 17-year-old, who netted 485 goals in just 89 matches for Milan's youth sides, arrived for his medical on Sunday, and completed the final formalities of his move to Lecce on Monday. Francesco Camarda arrives in Lecce ahead of his transfer from Milan. Having appeared for just 199 minutes of Serie A action last season, the hope is for the teenager to earn more consistent playing time in the top flight during his time with the Salentini. Lecce will have an option to make the loan deal permanent at the end of the season, but as Milan have a buy-back option, the player's future remains at the hands of the Rossoneri. Camarda becomes Lecce's second signing of the summer transfer window, following the earlier arrival of Christ-Owen Kouassi from Ligue 2 side Stade Lavallois.
