10 years of FIFA sneak (and definitely not comprehensive) preview of our Primavera this coming season. Please note I will NOT take into any extensive/exhaustive account of our new signings.
I would expect Smug to be the main keeper, with Ivusic as the backup - though Ivusic is very highly rated so dont be surprised if he takes over at some point.
Paramatti has already played for the Primavera at LB, so expect to see this continuing next season
Isaac Donkor is already "underage" for the youth team, so he will be a starring CB for next year I think.
Further afoot Leonardo Longo - on loan but will almost certainly be signed - has not made much impact on the Primavera this year, but he has featured quite a lot for the Berretti, so I wouldn't be entirely surprised if he was the starting CB alongside Donkor.
RB is less clear to me, perhaps someone like Eguelfi will step up to the plate if not sold, or Di Stefano? Time will tell on that one.
In midfield it seems much more clear. Olsen, Pasa, Acampora should all be leaving on loans, so it leaves space for Tassi, Mira, and Cannataro to make it for themselves. Expect Tassi to line up with Cannataro, and Mira ahead of them. A contender we should be careful to be dismissive of is Jesus Valeriano as well - he's been called up for the Primavera a few times towards the end of the season and I think he will almost certainly be featuring regularly. One should also make a note of Riccardo Palmieri - who has had some Primavera time too.
Upfront is a little less clear, too. Forte, Garritano, Colombi and Belloni will almost definitely be going out on loan. The rumour at the moment has it that Djumo will be staying - given his disappointing season last year - and Tommasone is one of the '95 class Primavera players now who will be expected to form next year's backbone. Further afoot, Bigotto, Guidala, and Ogunseye are the biggest prospects in the Beretti - though Guidala (Who was once called the "next Balotelli" by Mino Raiola) is coming off the back of a disappointing season compared to his two colleagues.
I also expect to see major contributions from Businaro - a CB who has been called up for Primavera - Francis Boateng, Bretolino and Giordano, naively.
The picture will be a bit clearer once we've had our new signings in and assigned to their respective positions as well - don't forget we have a swathe of players in this sort of category out on loan as well - which (like Longo) will be looking to make an impact.
From a playing side, its a bit less clear. With Sergio Zanetti (almost certainly) coming in to replace Bernazzini, I would expect to see a staying to the 4-2-3-1 - but apparently Mazzarri wants to insist on imposing the 3-5-2 on the youth team
