The gem born in 2005 made his debut from the first minute with the Seleccion, and was included in the list for the Copa America
The rise of Valentin Carboni doesn’t seem to encounter any obstacles: the gem born in 2005 made his debut from the first minute with Argentina during the night, and a few hours later he received the call-up for the Copa America. A golden period for the Inter-owned playmaker, who returned to base after the season on loan at Monza. No one now has any doubts about his talent, yet his future may not be black and blue: transfer rumors about him have been circulating for months, and public opinion is divided.
Signals from Argentina and… Germany
—
At the end of the friendly match against Guatemala (in which he earned a penalty and showed off several shots from his repertoire), Valentin Carboni received several endorsement. The most significant is certainly that of Lionel Messi, his great idol: “He has a fantastic future. […] I had already seen him in the Sub 20, but now he is a different player, much more trained. He has great quality“. Statements that represent, if not yet a coronation, certainly a certificate of esteem and trust. Non-trivial words, which Inter will certainly have listened to.
Just as the other signal that arrived last night from international football cannot go unnoticed: the first goals of Euro 2024 bear the signature of Wirtz and Musiala. Both born in 2003, both in their early twenties, both already absolute stars of Germany and protagonists in top teams such as Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich, both with more than 150 professional appearances behind them despite their very young age. We are certainly talking about two above-average footballers, but also yet another demonstration of the different policy on emerging talents. Carboni, at 19, has 40 appearances among the “greats”: Wirtz and Musiala, at the same age, had more than 80…
The question
—
At this point the question arises spontaneously: is it really worth it for Inter to sacrifice Valentin Carboni? His talent, recognized for years, is also appearing on the international stage; his characteristics would make him a unique player in the Nerazzurri’s advanced department, guaranteeing Inzaghi an element capable of jumping the man, of providing assists, of “inventing the play”; at the same time the company would find itself a home-grown jewel, without the need to go looking elsewhere.
