Milan Technical Director Ruben Amorim spoke about Rafael Leao's transfer situation. The Portuguese coach said about the star player, who is also on Galatasaray's transfer list, "Leao only trained once. He is not in the right physical condition right now, so he will not be in the match. For the remaining matters, we will wait for the transfer window to close. We will sit down and talk in five days."
Milan Technical Director Ruben Amorim spoke about Rafael Leao's situation in a press conference ahead of the Serie A second-round match against Venezia. The Portuguese coach gave clear messages regarding the future of the star player, who is also on Galatasaray's transfer list.
''WE WILL SIT DOWN AND TALK IN 5 DAYS''
Announcing that Leao will not be able to play against Venezia, Amorim said, ''Leao has only trained once. He is not in the right physical condition right now, so he will not be in the match. As for the rest, we will wait for the transfer window to close. We will sit down and talk in five days.''
''I WILL EXPLAIN EVERYTHING''
In response to the question of whether the player could be an important part of the team if he stays at Milan, Amorim replied, ''I understand this question, but we will discuss this matter after the transfer window closes, within five days. It is difficult for me to talk about this issue right now. But I promise to explain everything at the next press conference.''
''A VERY GREAT PLAYER''
Also touching on Leao's quality, Amorim continued: ''Leao is a very great player. I have said before that if he has the right mentality, he can play for any team in the world. But what he needs is exactly this mentality. In football, sometimes it is better to go somewhere else. We are currently in exactly such a situation.''
