Former AC Milan legendary coach Fabio Capello spoke highly of Rafael Leao and this is not the first time. The 75-year-old Italian did have important advice in the past for the Portuguese winger as he believes he can become a top player.
Now, Capello returned to talking about the former Lille star. He commented on the comparison between the 22-year-old star and Arsenal's legendary forward Thierry Henry (a comparison first stated by coach Stefano Pioli)
Leao is better in some aspects than Henry, claims Capello...
The former AC Milan and Juventus gaffer said the following words to the media on the occasion of a charity event, as reported by Italy-based website Calciomercato.com:
"Leao-Henry is not a far-fetched comparison. Leao has some technical qualities that are better than Henry but he has to improve. It takes time. He is improving year after year. In my opinion, he still has the chance to improve by 30%."
