In Riyadh, the Portuguese player trained separately, and everything suggests that he will not take the field tomorrow

Rafa Leao is 99.9% certain to miss tomorrow evening’s Super Cup semifinal against Napoli. During today’s training session at Princess Nourah, a stadium near Riyadh airport, the Portuguese player was not on the pitch with his teammates and trained separately before the session began. Everything suggests, therefore, that he will not even be on the bench tomorrow evening or that, if he is included in the squad list, it will only be to be close to his teammates and watch the match from a privileged position.

Injury—  – Leao injured his right adductor nine days ago in Turin, in the match against Torino. Tests ruled out any damage, but he has not yet fully recovered. However, Allegri is counting on having him available in case the team qualifies for the final on Monday, January 22. In any case, he does not intend to risk him because January will be a busy month after the match against Verona on December 28.
