Leao seeks rebirth, finds coach Pioli in front of him

Rafael Leao is looking to return to his best form in this weekend's match against Fiorentina, after a difficult period with controversy and fluctuations in performance.

The Portuguese striker returned early from the national team training camp to recover from a muscle problem. In Milan training, he has been following an individual program under the supervision of Massimiliano Allegri's technical staff.

The red and black coach expects a strong reaction from Leao, who so far has failed to show consistency in Serie A matches.

Statistics show that Fiorentina is a favorite opponent for him, with four goals scored in the past encounters. Moreover, the match takes on a symbolic dimension, as Stefano Pioli, the coach who helped the Portuguese to establish himself at a high level, will be on the bench.

This match is seen as an opportunity for rebirth, both for Leao and for Milan, which is seeking stability after an uncertain period in the championship.
