SportMediaset (via MilanNews) reports how the question regarding the future of Leao continues to be spoken about at Casa Milan, especially when considering that he was one of the great protagonists of the Scudetto win.
Real Madrid are a real threat, but Milan and even the new owner Gerry Cardinale absolutely do not intend to lose the young Portuguese winger because of his importance to the team and the project moving forward.
