A comment on Dominik Szoboszlai’s recent Instagram post from none other than Rafael Leao stirred rumours of a potential market flashback.
Leao commented on the images posted by Szoboszlai on Instagram by putting ‘Come to Milan’ with Milan replaced by a red heart and a black heart. As Calciomercato.com report, while the reply might not be 100% serious in nature, it seems the Portuguese winger wants to play with the Hungarian and not be replaced by him.
On the other hand, Szoboszlai could already be at Milan if the negotiations with Red Bull Salzburg in the summer of 2021 had gone the way that the Rossoneri planned. Milan wanted to sign the playmaker, but his signing needed the departure of Hakan Calhanoglu.
Instead, the Turk stalled until the end of his contract and then moved to Inter on a free free, which allowed RB Leipzig to come in and pay €25m to keep Szoboszlai in the Red Bull orbit, signing a contract until June 2026. It is a failed deal that Leao, judging by his exuberance on Instagram, would like Milan to have another go at.
