Lukaku sends support to troubled Milan star Leao
Leao started the second consecutive league game on the bench and was introduced in the final 28 minutes.
The Portuguese winger has fallen down Paulo Fonseca’s pecking order at San Siro but has recently received support from many fellow football stars.
The last one was one of his most recent opponents, Lukaku, who shared an Instagram story initially published by Leao and added, ‘Irmao Tmj’, an expression that means, ‘ We are in this together, bro.’
Lukaku has eight goal contributions in his opening eight games at Napoli, while Leao has one goal and four assists in 11 Milan appearances this season.
