The Rafael Leao we saw in Madrid, Cagliari, and during the last two appearances for the Portuguese national team is the one we always want to see, as relayed via Milannews.it.
Milan’s star left-winger was dominant and unstoppable, making his mark in both phases of play in every match he played.
This is evidenced by his assist against Real Madrid, his brace against Cagliari, and his goal to make it 1-0 against Poland, a diving header, no less, certainly not his trademark move.
Il Corriere dello Sport in this morning's print edition wrote the following headline:
"Unleashed Leao"
With Álvaro Morata back, the Portuguese coach is considering who to position behind the Spanish striker to support him in view of the next challenge against Juventus at the San Siro.
The main candidates are Yunus Musah, effective in both phases, Samuel Chukwueze, bolder in attack, or Loftus-Cheek. Every decision is expected to be finalised between today and tomorrow morning, as Paulo Fonseca cannot afford any missteps, not even this time.
