    WHAT HAPPENED?

    Theo Hernandez's penalty secured AC Milan a 1-0 win at home to Fiorentina on Saturday night. And there was a bit of history at the San Siro as Rossoneri teenager Camarda came off the bench to become Serie A's youngest ever player at 15 years, eight months and 23 days old. The forward was born on March 10, 2008 and surpassed Bologna's Wisdom Amey, who played in the Italian top-flight at 15 years, nine months and one day in May 2021.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Camarda could be the new golden boy of Italian football. This season he has scored seven goals in 13 games at youth level and during his time in the academy he has reportedly scored approximately 400 goals (when taking into account five-a-side, seven-a-side, and eight-a-side games). He could be one to watch in the future.

    DID YOU KNOW?

    Camarda has previously said his hero is Brazilian legend Ronaldo. Earlier this year, he said: "My idol has always been Ronaldo, the Phenomenon. My dad was also a big fan of the Brazilian and I also like watching videos with his plays and his movements."

  • WHAT NEXT FOR AC MILAN?

    Milan are back in Champions League action on Tuesday at home to Borussia Dortmund. Camarda will be dreaming of a debut in that competition, too.
