Rafael Leao was the guest on the 19F podcast with Juventus footballer Moise Kean. The Milanese talked about many subjects, including his relationship with his family, fans and especially with his former team-mate Zlatan Ibrahimovic. He revealed one of the Swede’s habits towards him.

Rafael Leao claimed that Zlatan Ibraimovic spoke to him very little on the pitch. At least when he was playing well. The Swede only spoke to the Portuguese when he made a blunder. “Zlatan used to do that. When I was playing well, he didn’t say anything to me. It was only when I played badly that he did. Sometimes he’d say to me, Rafa, this control you have to do so immediately to get to the goal, with a talent like that you can’t miss a control like that”, said the AC Milan winger.
