More fear than harm. Starting against Hellas Verona this Friday, December 20, Rafael Leão was forced to leave his teammates half an hour into the game, after feeling muscle discomfort. After the match, won 1-0 by AC Milan, Paulo Fonseca wanted to reassure his supporters about the state of the Portuguese winger: “ He asked to be replaced because he felt it pulling. We talked about it, it doesn't seem very serious, he didn't want to take any risks. »
As for the date of his return, Leão should, again according to Paulo Fonseca, be available at the Milanese's next deadline. The latter will host Claudio Ranieri's AS Roma on December 29, for the 18th day of Serie A.
