AC Milan beat Dinamo Zagreb 4-0 in Croatia on Tuesday to record a huge Champions League win, and Rafael Leao certainly enjoyed the celebrations.
MilanNews recall that Leao – before returning to the dressing room – stopped in front of the away fans’ sector after they started singing his song. The winger stayed there for a few seconds to listen to them, even joining in a bit, before saying goodbye to the Curva Sud Milano by beating his hand on his heart (a bit like Kakà did a few years ago).

The video published on the Milan social media accounts immediately spread as many perceived his gesture to be another declaration of love for the club and its fans. The question of his contract renewal continues to rage on and while nothing seems imminent, what filters is Leao’s desire to stay,
That moment at the Stadion Maksimir is perhaps a good sign that gives a little more confidence to the Rossoneri environment while anxiously awaiting news. Milan would like to close the issue before the World Cup, but that will be tough considering the confusion over who has power of attorney and what will happen with the fine owed to Sporting CP.
Lets just wait, they all say “i love milan, etc..” but many forget that when they are going to sign the new contract.
Hopefully its differente with Rafa
Lol, this is legitimately the same story as with Donna and Kessie… same outcome about to happen? Probably. Very unfortunate, but here’s to hoping it’s different this time..
He should look at what is happening to Kessie and learn a lesson!
Honestly from a business standpoint Red Bird has a card they don’t seem to be playing. International sports Marketing. With the connections they have there should be other avenues to counteract the pay offset through the American Market alone. Appeal to his star power in creating a global brand for Rafa. That money can dwarf what any club could offer in salary if done correctly.
Michael Jordans wealth came from his brand not his salary. Thats what I would be selling rafa’s entourage.
That is exactly what Redbird is planning.
On the one hand, he doesn’t seem to be signing any sort of contract…
On the other, he waved at the fans after a game…
Sure MilanNews, definitely means he’s staying
Where did this site (or MilanNews) said that he will ‘definitely’ will stay? Nothing.
It just suggest that Leao’s gesture ‘fuels hope’ and ‘gives a little more confidence’ that he’ll stay.
Leao will stay…d boy is loyal
let him even lick the badge, it means nothing until he signs the dotted lines.
Indeed. Dollarumma kissed the badge many times and he signed the contract. Right?
