Probably because he definitely wouldn’t make the starting line ups at Atleti or City and would be at best a rotation option at Milan…. Oh and Tax Avoidance.
Lol Monaco thinking they’re world beaters holding onto a ballon d’or prospect, boohooo, what is Milan gonna do now? We can’t move forward now…. Lool. Keep your guy, there isn’t shortage of talent.
Whatever! Your loss m8. Milan are way bigger than you will ever be. Your not fit to clean Rafael Leao’s boots.
Football needs more people taking the p*ss. Good stuff young man. No need to be so serious about it all the time.
lol even if it is not a big deal, you dont piss in a potential future club for you. Childish announcement even if I am up for banter all the time. Football after all is business
Ah come on putuco, do you think any of the clubs mentioned care? It’s not like he’s off their transfer watch list now because of a silly video.
