Ahead of his first Milan derby, Rúben Amorim publicly addressed Rafael Leão, with the Portuguese coach stating that the forward should feel “lucky” to be at AC Milan. Both outlets report that Amorim’s comments come amid continuing speculation about Leão’s future at the club. Speaking before the derby, Amorim frames Leão’s position at Milan as an opportunity, implying that the player benefits from being at a club of Milan’s stature. The remarks are described as direct and pointed, suggesting a firm message to Leão as the team approaches a major match. Neither report indicates that Amorim provides new details on Leão’s contract situation or resolves the ongoing questions surrounding his long-term role at Milan. The focus remains on the coach’s message as the derby draws near, setting a tone of confidence in the player’s value to the squad while acknowledging that uncertainty around his future persists in public discussion.
