Who is Francesco Camarda? Many have asked this on Google after hearing about the AC Milan wonderkid’s remarkable goalscoring record.

The Italian has been averaging 5.5 goals per game in the youth ranks for AC Milan, scoring 483 goals in just 87 games to make football fans across the globe sit up and take notice.

So, who is Francesco Camarda? Let’s take a look…

Who is Francesco Camarda?

Well, Camarda is just 14 years of age, but he has already been given an opportunity to play for the AC Milan Under-19 side in a friendly against Solbiatese, as he clearly finds things too easy within his own age group.

Amazingly, the teenager scored twice in that game, against players who are five years older than him – according to Italian Football TV.

Football scout Sciabolata Morbida has posted Camarda’s statistics in full on his personal Twitter account, and the numbers are hard to believe.

Morbida states that the prolific AC Milan prodigy scored 247 goals in just 40 appearances during the 2017/18 campaign.

Camarda – who plays a bit like Karim Benzema – then allegedly went on to score 172 goals in 31 games across the 2018/19 season.

The Italian wonderkid then netted 64 goals in 16 outings in 2019/20 to achieve a total of 483 goals in just 87 appearances, a tally very few – if any – will have matched at youth level.

You would imagine that Europe’s elite clubs have shortlisted Camarda with the hope of signing him.

However, any side interested in this special talent may find it difficult to lure him away from the San Siro, as he is believed to be a boyhood AC Milan fan.
