GdS: ‘Milan’s turnaround is Leao’s’ – Flame returns after recent suffering | OneFootball

Rafael Leao has had a challenging start to the season, but with AC Milan’s 3-1 victory against Real Madrid, a page could be turned.

With three games on the bench out of four before Milan’s trip to the Bernabeu, there had been a growing question about when Leao’s time would be. However, Fonseca stated that his time to shine would be in Spain.

This season has been difficult for the winger, there can be no denying that. His minutes have been lessened, and his contributions, expectedly, dropped as well. Though, the big concern has been his relationship with Fonseca. So when the Portuguese head coach instilled his faith in the winger before the clash, there was a sense of anticipation about what was to come.

As Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) writes, Leao returned. Singing, dancing, smiling. The Leao of old, on and off the pitch, finally showing himself once again after a period of struggle. Now, the winger, as can Milan, can turn a page on the chapter of struggle.

It is suggested that the events in Spain, powered by Leao’s brilliance, can be a turning point for both, and Fonseca now has a brand new weapon at his disposal.

A flame has been lit once again within the Portuguese after his recent period of suffering, and Milan must keep adding to the fire, ensuring Leao stays firmly on the accelerator.
