DBasia.news – AC Milan striker, Rafael Leao, sent a warning to his next two potential opponents, Juventus and Inter Milan. Leao asserted, Milan are in a position ready to win again.
Rafael Leao is one of the key players behind Milan’s appearance this season. The player has scored six goals and provided four assists in 18 Serie A matches. Not surprisingly, Stefano Pioli has labeled Leao an incarnation of Thierry Henry.
Leao confirmed, Milan is ready to face the next two important matches against Juventus and Inter Milan. Although, in the last match, the Rossoneri fell at the hands of Spezia.
“The next two games against Juventus and Inter will be very important. However, not decisive. The season is still very long,” explained Leao in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport.
“The match against Juve will be challenging. They are a great team and are getting goals again. We need to take advantage of playing at home. Our fans will motivate even though there are only 5,000,” said the Portuguese player.
“We have to start winning again. We are ready and deserve it. I try to understand how it can hurt any opponent based on their characteristics.”
Leao also emphasized that Milan will not give up in the race to win the Scudetto. According to him, the Rossoneri have come a long way.
“Yes, we are stronger and more mature than last year. Winning the Scudetto is the goal. We want to see Milan full of red and black,” stated Rafael Leao.
AC Milan are reportedly satisfied with the appearance of Rafael Leao. Not surprisingly, Il Diavolo Rosso plans to extend Leao’s contract by giving him a salary increase.
