[Saba Sports News] According to Italian media reports, AC Milan forward Rafael Leao’s relationship with coach Paulo Fonseca has completely broken down, and he has been sitting on the bench for several consecutive matches. There are reports that Leao is considering leaving the club, while Barcelona is closely monitoring his situation. So far this season, Leao has played 11 matches for AC Milan, scoring one goal and providing three assists. In the 2021/22 season, the 22-year-old Leao played 34 Serie A matches for AC Milan, contributing 11 goals and nine assists, and he was named Serie A MVP for that season. It is worth noting that due to recent poor performances, Leao’s market value dropped by 15 million euros in last month’s update on Transfermarkt. The 25-year-old Leao currently has a market value of 75 million euros and his contract with AC Milan will expire in 2028. Additionally, Leao’s after-tax annual salary is 6.5 million euros, making him the highest-paid player in AC Milan. What do other AC Milan players think about Leao?
