He cannot pull, he does not know how to kick the ball and he does not mark or does not give help

Antonio Cassano launched a scouring attack on AC Milan striker Rafael Leao, saying that the international of Portugal has “no idea of ​​football” and his only attribute is his pace.

Leao played a peripheral role for Milan this season, making only two substitute appearances after an absence of a month due to a calf injury.

He came against Juventus this weekend, but missed an opportunity in gold when the match ended. It does not seem well suited to the 3-5-2 formation of Max Allegri who dispenses with his favorite role on the left wing.

And Cassano has become tired of a player who, according to him, is over-type.

The former Milan star told Viva El Futbol: “Leão does not know how to play with his back on goal, he does not know how to protect the ball. He has no idea of ​​football, he does not know how to launch with right right or left foot. It only has speed and it is only effective when the balls are thrown forward.

“What really bothers me is that a phenomenon is created. But it is not his fault, it is Milan, who pays him 8 million euros per year.”

Leao scores goals or gives assists – Cassano

Cassano is another player who has never really delivered his talent, but the ex-Italy International quickly stressed that he had done more in his career than Leao at 26 years old.

“Each year, at the start of the season, Leão always gives the same interview in which he says it will be his year and that he will do well with the new coach,” added Cassano.

“He did it with (Paulo) Fonseca, with (Sergio) Conceiçao and now with (Max) Allegri. At the age of 26, I had already signed for Real Madrid.

“Leao does not score goals or do not give assists, but above all, he does not know how to shoot.”

Leao will take a break in his serial troubles this week after being included in the Portugal team for the double heaven for the World Cup against the Republic of Ireland and Hungary. The two games will be played at Estadio Jose Alvalade, the House of CP Sportif.
