Francesco Camarda has stalled on signing pro terms with AC Milan.
The first teamer, 16, has offers from Manchester City and Bayern Munich after his season breakthrough.
Local reporter Peppe Di Stefano told Sky Italia: He hasn't signed his first contract yet and this is not good news for me. I don't have positive feelings in relation to this. It's a question of who the first team and Under-23 coaches will be, it's a question of the signing I think we need to reset because he's too young. We will have to understand the intentions of both sides.
At the moment the feelings are not positive, because if there had been an agreement the boy would obviously have already renewed.
"That would be a shame for everyone. We don't know if he will become a player or not, but we are convinced that he will get a chance because he keeps scoring goals. We hope we don't lose him for our football."
