Donnarumma has been with us for almost 4 years and have made huge progress since we signed him. So I would say that it's safe to say that we've produced him.

We've signed the young offensive midfielder Yassine Ennasry (born in 1992) from Venezia.
He's of moroccan descent and will be on loan for the rest of the season. Ennasry will play with our Berretti squad.

So, how is the situation with our young players? Is Cardacio loaning out to Pisa? How about Viudez and other players? Any one knows the info?

They're all staying - at least until the summer. Most likely Cardacio will be loaned out. The same goes for Viudez unless he decides to play another season with Primavera.

Kingsley Umunegbu has been loaned out to Portogruaro.

What competition is that? Italian or Portugal? And which level?

It's an Italian club (close to Venice). They play in Lega Pro A (formerly known as Serie C).

We have Alex Fernando Pontons Paz (from players born in 1994) who has scored 17 goals from 20 games (I don't know how many games he has played) and Marco Gaeta (Allievi Nazionali, born 1992) who has managed to score 20 goals this season.

Anyone has watched highlights about them or at least about Gaeta? Any info about Gaeta height/weight?

why should height/weight be important?

I actually only want to know their height so I can know how big they are. I am not a fan of small players ( under 175 cm) who play in Europe as for me the players in that range of height have disadvantages to play against big players (over 180 cm) and on their abilities in football (like shooting, controlling the ball from opponent's marking, etc.).

So, I am not a fan of players like Diego, Tevez, Saviola, Pablo Aimar, etc. But if they already in Milan, I will support them.

Our Primavera lost 2-0 against Inter's Primavera if I'm not wrong ... they don't learn the good things !!

Our young AC Milan teams are bad. We are (almost) always behind Inter from Primavera to Allievi and this has been happening at least for a couple of years (I only roughly follow the teams in these years). Our Primavera especially this season is really bad. We are only in the middle-bottom of the table. No wonder no star came from our youth team for a decade. In the mean time, Inter have been dominating (Milan) in youth teams in the last 2-3 years (I only look at the table position, dont know the result of the play-off).

I just hope that Maldini will take some authority in youth department (not youth team's coach) as he ever said that he concerns about the youth (or something like that if I remember correctly). He grew up in Milan youth and his son is also there, he should have bright views about growing young players.

Apparently Paz is 178 and Gaeta 185. He is also lited on the official site as a midfielder.
