Rafael Leao is not in his best form. The Portuguese former left-winger of Lille and Sporting Lisbon plays too many games while Ante Rebic is injured. As he was forced to work 'overtime', Pioli is now considering whether to deploy him from the start or to use him from the bench.
According to what is reported by Sky Sport Italia, Leao did a first part of personalised training and then joined the rest of the group at Milanello.
The 22-year-old's presence as a starter in the lineup tomorrow is not so certain, in fact. Coach Stefano Pioli will have to give it a big think and will decide tomorrow how to handle this particular situation in view of the match against Atlético Madrid.
Pioli: “It is clear that we have to raise our performance level”
