Fans left confused by Rafael Leao’s reaction to Chukwueze’s MVP award for Milan – picture | OneFootball

Samuel Chukwueze was named Milan‘s MVP by Rossoneri fans after a 3-0 win over Lecce and Rafael Leao’s reaction on social media has made people talk.

Rafael Leao reacted with an exhaling emoji to the news that his teammate Chukwueze had been named Milan’s MVP for their latest Serie A win over Lecce.

This emoji represents relief but also disappointment or displeasure, so many fans commented on Leao’s post, telling the Portuguese to be happy for his teammate rather than frustrated with himself.

Leao probably wanted to express relief as he’s known to be a very close friend of Chukwueze. The Nigeria international had a slow start to life at Milan, but has been showing steady improvements over the last few weeks.

When Chukwueze scored his first Serie A goal against Verona before the March break, Leao rejoiced on social media calling the ex-Villarreal winger “brother.”
