AC Milan will take on Sassuolo tomorrow afternoon and the team departed for Reggio Emilia earlier this evening. As captured by journalists present, Stefano Pioli and Rafael Leao both stopped to sign autographs for fans outside the hotel.
It was a disappointing mid-week clash for the Rossoneri as they lost 1-0 against Roma. Rafael Leao in particular was upset and after the game, he ended up in an expletive interaction with a journalist in the mixed zone. Now, however, he’s fully focused on tomorrow’s task.
As captured by MilanPress (see video below), Pioli and Leao both stopped to sign some autographs before departing for Reggio Emilia with the rest of the team. It remains to be seen if the winger will get any playing time, given the return leg against Roma next week.

Indeed, the manager is set to change almost the entire starting eleven, further fueled by Mike Maignan’s fatigue.
