Valentin Carboni and Franesco Pio Esposito are playing for their futures at Inter Milan at the Club World Cup this summer.

Today’s print edition of La Repubblica, via FCInterNews, anticipate that the two young forwards will have major roles for the Nerazzurri at the tournament to come.

Valentin Carboni and Francesco Pio Esposito are both part of the Inter squad at the Club World Cup.

The former recently turned twenty. Meanwhile, the latter turns twenty later this month.

But despite their age, the pair have already more than made their impact at the Club World Cup.

Both came off the bench against Urawa Red Diamonds on Saturday. And they both played a huge role in Inter’s comeback victory.

Moreover, there is every chance of Carboni and Esposito also featuring in Inter’s last group stage match. Watch Inter Milan vs River Plate for FREE with DAZN on any device!

Carboni & Pio Esposito Playing For Future At Inter At Club World Cup

La Repubblica note that Carboni and Pio Esposito have been using this tournament as an opportunity to learn from the more senior players in Inter’s team.

And in particular Lautaro Martinez.

Then, coach Cristian Chivu has shown a great willingness to showcase both Carboni and Pio Esposito. In general, Inter have asked the Romanian to put his faith in youth.

Therefore, however far Inter make it at the Club World Cup, Carboni and Pio Esposito should have a role to play.

And therefore, reports La Repubblica, it can hardly be ruled out that either of the pair will impress enough to earn their place in Inter’s future plans,
