Rafael Leão is going through a particularly complicated period at AC Milan. Considered the offensive leader of the Milan project, the Portuguese striker has had an irregular season, hampered by injuries, a lack of continuity and a totally unstable collective context. His current statistics, 10 goals and 2 assists in all competitions, reflect a performance below expectations for a player expected to lead the Rossoneri attack in Serie A.
The last episode of tension occurred during the heavy defeat against Udinese (0-3), where Leão was replaced under the whistles of San Siro… A poorly experienced outing which illustrates an increasingly tense climate around the Portuguese, already frustrated on several occasions this season. Even internally, the situation is worrying, to the point that management no longer completely rules out a sale in the event of a significant offer according to Sportwhile his name is already circulating on the market, particularly among FC Barcelona. Barça sees in Leão a leading offensive option to strengthen its left wing, an explosive profile capable of bringing imbalance and depth to its offensive sector. His future will also depend on that of Marcus Rashford.
