Rúben Amorim has sent a pointed message to Rafael Leão on the eve of his first Milan derby, insisting the forward should feel fortunate to represent the club amid ongoing questions over his future.
With quotes via Tuttomercatoweb, the Milan coach was speaking before Wednesday's pre-season meeting with Inter in Perth.
Asked about Leão, whose exit had looked likely before offers so far failed to materialise, Amorim struck a firm but warm note.
"Rafa is lucky to be at a club like Milan, so he should be happy. I feel that he's happy and motivated," he said. "I don't know what will happen between now and the end of the window, but I feel the group is really united. I haven't heard or seen any difference in Leão compared to the other lads."
