Rafael Leao, a name that is linked to the FC Barcelona market as a very difficult possibility but “to try” In the last few days of the transfer window, he was the protagonist of a tense incident at Milan’s game this weekend, an incident that prompted the Portuguese international winger to spread a message on his social networks. Leao was one of the names of Milan’s defeat against Parma (2-1) when, after participating in the play that temporarily made it 1-1 through Christian Pulisic, he silenced everyone by looking at the stands towards the Curva Sud. Apparently, his gesture was for a specific fan, at least that’s what the footballer himself said on his social networks: “The gesture was never and will never be for the Curva Sud, who supported me in all my most difficult moments. They are, perhaps, the only true fans who accompany us in difficult times. The gesture was for a specific fan who made a negative comment at the moment we were losing. No Milan player goes on the field to play badly on purpose. We honour the shirt from the beginning to the end of every game,” wrote the explosive 25-year-old winger.
Leao included in his reflection a defence of the kind of footballer he is. “I will continue taking risks as I always have, that is what makes me different, I will not change my way of playing. Yesterday’s game is over, now it is time to focus on the next battle.””. Leao finished with a ” Curva Sud, always with you.”

The only statement from an official voice on the matter was given by Milan’s CEO Giorgio Furlani, when asked by El Chiringuito he assured that there was “zero chance” that Leao left.
