After seven years of swinging between moments of joy and unbridled euphoria and periods of disappointment and frustration, Rafael Leão’s story with Milan has come to an end. It was nevertheless prolonged for as long as possible over the course of the summer, with the player only officially joining Galatasaray in the final days of the summer transfer window.
Among those who worked on the deal was lawyer Antonio Leo, a member of the player’s entourage. Speaking as a guest on Sportitalia’s Workshop, Leo reflected on Leão’s departure from Milan.
Antonio Leo, Rafael Leão’s lawyer, commented on the relationship between Milan and the Portuguese player:
"Rafa Leão’s relationship with Milan was a very, very strong one. It was not easy to bring it to an end from an emotional point of view; technically speaking, I believe both sides had already brought it to an end before the season finished. There are many things that are not said, but you can sense and understand them."
