Rafael Leao: ‘Kean at Milan would be crazy, we’d crush everyone’ | OneFootball

Rafael Leao has publicly asked Milan to bring him Italy international Moise Kean from Fiorentina as a new strike partner. ‘It would be crazy!’

The Portugal international was receiving messages from supporters during a Twitch live stream as he played games this week.

Among the questions he responded to, someone asked if he brought Kean along for the next stream, but he took it a bit further.

“I wish… For Milan too! I love Moise, he’s my brother and together it would be crazy! We’d crush everyone.”

Leao excited by idea of Kean partnership

The odds of that transfer happening are slim, especially after the €52m release clause in Kean’s Fiorentina contract ran down.

He is discussing a new deal that would significantly increase or even remove that clause for next season.

Meanwhile, Milan are in negotiations with Manchester United to secure Rasmus Hojlund on loan with an option to buy, so it remains to be seen if he would excite Leao as much as the idea of partnering Kean.
