Rafael Leao, a standout player for AC Milan, has justifiably acquired the reputation of being one of the top left-wingers players in Europe.
Under Leao’s leadership, the Rossoneri were able to break their 11-year league title drought by winning the 2021/22 Serie A championship in his third season with the side. Following a remarkable season in which they were victorious and won the championship, he was also honored as the best player in Serie A.
Due to Real Madrid’s aim to consistently acquire the very best players, the Portuguese player, who is valued at €90 million, has been associated with Real Madrid in the past. This is because Real Madrid is one of the most sought-after commodities in Europe.
The ideal group for Leao
Leao picked his ideal eleven players in an interview with GianlucaDiMarzio.com. He constructed a team in a 4-3-3 formation that included a significant number of Real Madrid icons, which hinted at his infatuation with the club.
In point of fact, the Portuguese international player chose to play two Real Madrid midfielders, namely Jude Bellingham and Luka Modric, with Kevin De Bruyne serving as their partner in the middle of the field.
During this time, another outstanding player from Madrid made an appearance in the attack game. Leao replaced Vinicius Jr. on the left side of the field, and he positioned himself and Kylian Mbappe, who is a target for Real Madrid, in the two forward spots that were left open.
In terms of the other members of the squad, Leao selected Mike Maignan, who is a member of the AC Milan club, to protect the sticks.
With the intention of shifting attention to the defense, he assembled a formidable group of players for the back line. With Joao Cancelo, a player from Barcelona, playing right back and Theo Hernandez, another player from the same club, playing left back, Leao ensured that the attacking composure was maintained out wide.
Within the core of the defense, he was the one who built the center-back partnership between the seasoned Thiago Silva and Ruben Dias, who was playing for Manchester City.
Assuming that he continues to develop as a football player, it is impossible to rule out the chance that he may one day wear the Real Madrid shirt. This is particularly true considering that the attacker has included three Real Madrid players on his dream squad.
