“Leao is a phenomenon, if he learns two or three things he can be the strongest in the world”, says Conceiçao. Everyone at the Rossoneri has already tried, with different methods and mixed results. What has been done and what is still missing

He is not the first and, most likely, he will not be the last (unless he succeeds in the feat that his predecessors were not capable of). When on the night in Riyadh, with the medal around his neck and the cup next to him, Conceiçao declared that “Leao is a phenomenon, if he learns two or three things he can be the strongest in the world”, Sergio did nothing but repeat a I’ve already heard this concept several times. Because there are many who consider Rafa potentially on the world podium of attackers, but no one has yet been able to get him up there. In this sense, let’s say that not even the person concerned went out of his way to achieve this. Who knows if this is the right time: the beginning is decidedly comforting and in any case Leao will be 26 in June, time is running out and now it’s really starting to run out.
