Description:

Andrea Pinamonti is a product of Internazionale youth academy. He is considered to be one of the most talented young players of his generation in Italy. In the 2015/16 season, he achieved his first major success by winning Coppa Italia Primavera after a victorious two-legged tie against Juve. As a result of performing well and scoring goals with youth teams, he received a great opportunity before the 2016/17 season and went on tour with the first team, where he was able to play and learn from excellent forwards such as Mauro Icardi, Rodrigo Palacio, Stevan Jovetić and Eder.

 

Quotes:

‘I was impressed by everything, especially the way the senior strikers move on the pitch. They would move at such great pace in spite of the fatigue. We, the young players, are still definitely lacking of such pace. We are also still not used to playing matches in fully packed stadiums.’

(Andrea Pinamonti after pre-Season tour with Inter first team)
