"There remains a lot of mystery surrounding Rafael Leao's condition, and it will extend right up until the teams are named. As MilanNews write, Leao left with the rest of the squad for the Supercoppa Italiana, despite being out for just over a week with an adductor problem that he sustained during the 3-2 comeback win against Torino. A last-minute call"
"The fact he has travelled suggests that he is not far from a full recovery, though doubt remains about the role that he will actually be able to play, given the staff will have no desire to risk aggravating things. Yesterday, the Portuguese underwent an individual training before his team-mates did their group session, while this morning Massimiliano Allegri tested him in training to determine whether he will be available for the match against Napoli."
"According to the report, the Rossoneri head will make a final decision on Leao only this evening at the stadium. So, for now, his potential participation remains a mystery, just as it did in the last edition of the tournament. As a reminder, he missed the semi-final against Juventus, and came on after five minutes in the second half of the final against Inter. It was a move that turned the match around, as he helped inspire a comeback from 0-2 to 3-2."
Rafael Leao remains a doubt for the Supercoppa Italiana after sustaining an adductor problem during the 3-2 win over Torino. He traveled with the squad, indicating progress toward recovery, but staff are cautious about risking aggravation. Leao completed individual training and was tested by Massimiliano Allegri to assess match readiness. A final availability decision will be made at the stadium this evening. Leao's participation is uncertain, mirroring the previous tournament when he missed the semi-final but later influenced the final by coming on early and inspiring a 3-2 comeback.
