And Rafael Leao appeared at a press conference to discuss the meeting against Spain in the League of Nations that will take place in a few days, but also to talk about its current form and its future.
The Portuguese Milan striker, the last Italian champion and the best player in the Italian league, was asked about his current level and the rumors swirling around him about his future. However, the 22-year-old was careful to say that his head was on his shoulders.
The match against Spain
” It is always an honor to come to Seleção, whether at the Alvalade stadium or at another stadium. I’m sure there will be a great atmosphere because the Portuguese want to see us lift another cup. We know Spain is a great choice, but we are. We will fight them and we want to win. We know that Spain is very strong in possession of the ball. We will explore their weaknesses. We prepared well for this match because going in with a win is very important. »
his current moment
” I am very happy with my moment but always with my feet on the ground. I feel proud to work with experienced players. I left Sporting Lisbon young, and I went to Lille, in Ligue 1, in a strong tournament where I feel I have developed as a player. I took another important step with my move to Milan. The early years were not what I wanted, but in the last year I feel more mature and confident. I hope to achieve great things in the future. »
his future
” I’m in Milan, and I still have a two-year contract. I’m doing very well in Milan and I feel at home. What do you want in the future? To be a reference in my team and choice. And maybe the World Cup, the most important thing for a player is to win the World Cup. »
