Gullit gives advice to Rafael Leao, says Milan star must do two things | OneFootball

Milan legend Ruud Gullit insists Rafael Leao must gain as much experience as possible and ‘keep doing what he’s doing.’

Gullit a Ballon d’Or and two-time Champions League winner at Milan, spoke to Italian reporter Carlo Pellegatti and answered a question about Rossoneri star Rafael Leao.

The Portuguese forward has had some highs and lows this season but still contributed to 16 goals across all competitions in 2023-24.

“He must keep doing what he’s doing, the more experience he gets, the better,” said the ex-Dutch midfielder as quoted by MilanNews.

“He’s a player who can help Milan fight for the title even if this season has been different because Inter are doing really well.”

Gullit was joined by his compatriots Marco Van Basten and Frank Rijkaard, two other Milan legends, part of one of the best teams of all time.

“It was a different era. Every Serie A club had three champions, now we must fight against the money coming from England, which is difficult,” admitted Gullit.

“Nowadays, many nig players are in other countries.”
