Real Madrid take note: Rafael Leao passes the test

Real Madrid were clearly outclassed by AC Milan in a duel between the two most successful clubs in the Champions League.

Despite the painful defeat, the 15-time winner of the Champions League took advantage of the opportunity to monitor the stellar performance of Rafael Leao.

Real Madrid have struggled to find their best form for quite some time.

Although the project is ambitious, featuring some of the world’s top professionals, the team has not been able to find the right balance.

A significant factor in this is the alarming lack of stability following Toni Kroos’s retirement.

This is something AC Milan capitalized on, as the Lombard team dominated the reigning champions of both the League and Europe in their Champions League encounter.

In this regard, Rafael Leao (25 years old) proved to be a constant challenge for the Real Madrid defense, particularly for Lucas Vázquez, who he consistently outmaneuvered during their match-up.

Rafael Leao shined at the Santiago Bernabéu

According to Defensa Central, the club’s president, Florentino Pérez, has been closely monitoring the attacker’s performance.

With a valuation expected to exceed an astonishing €100 million, it’s worth noting that FC Barcelona is also keeping an eye on the Portuguese international.

Meanwhile, his agent, Jorge Mendes, is known for his negotiating skills in the market, a fact that hasn’t gone unnoticed at the Santiago Bernabéu.

The Rossoneri hope to continue benefiting from Leao’s exceptional form, a winger who could spark a Clásico rivalry between Barça and Real Madrid.
