"Sign Leon! Sign Leon! He will be the cornerstone of our midfield for the next 15 years! ”

"If Galliani lets Leon return to Real Madrid in the end, it will be a dereliction of duty! Why wasn't there a buyout clause in the first place? ”

"We can still talk to Real Madrid, it's still early before the end of the season, and I believe we still have the opportunity to buy out Leon's contract directly."

"That's because you don't know Mourinho enough, Leon is his favourite type of midfielder, look at the progress of Leon after we are here, he is an absolute genius! Jose Mourinho will never let him leave Real Madrid like this! ”

"I can't accept that fact! Can't we renew Leon at the end of the season? Even if you can't buy it out, can you renew the lease of Leon for another season? ”

Milan fans with a cracked mentality have already quarreled about Mourinho's interview on the Internet and major forums.

Milan have actually been outstanding in the first half of the league this season.

But compared with the Milan team after Li Ang joined, the Milan performance in the first half of the season can be said to be a level lower.

Because the arrival of Leon not only made Milan's midfield defense better and more stable, but also gave Pirlo a second spring.

If you just look at these two points, Milan is equivalent to completing nearly 30 or 40 million transfer reinforcements in the winter window.

Not to mention the tactical help Leon provided to Milan in the second half of the league in attack.

He didn't have many goals and assists, but they were all crucial, as well as those who covered his teammates to score.

Even the Milan fans who are least sensitive to tactical adjustments and the improvement of the team's strength.

It can now be clearly listed one by one, the importance of Leon to this aging midfield Milan.

And what price did Milan pay for Leon?

Bear half of Leon's salary during the loan period.

The pre-tax expenditure is just over 200,000 euros.

Even with a generous prize money for winning the championship, Milan will not spend more than half a million on Leon!

Yes, there is only such an expense, and other than that, Real Madrid did not even let Milan pay a cent for the loan.

Counting on this, this deal can't be described as cost-effective, it's simply cost-effective!

Therefore, Milan fans who have gradually lived a "poor life" in recent years are so reluctant to see Leon leave Milan.

Such a good and stable young midfielder, plug and play, low salary, and high growth talent, really let go, and then it really has nothing to do with Milan anymore!

On the afternoon of April 17, there was a sign that said "Don't let go of Leon!" Milan fans at the sign took to the club's gate to protest by a sit-in.

It was only after Li Ang drove back to his residence after training in the afternoon that he learned about the development.

But he couldn't explain anything to the Milan fans.

His departure was a foregone conclusion, and in the face of calls from his Milan teammates, Leon could honestly say that he had a contract with Real Madrid, and he could not make a decision about whether he would stay in Milan.

But in the face of the Rossoneri of Milan City, he really couldn't say such public relations words.

In the 34th round of the league, Allegri, with a serious face, led a starting lineup composed of young players from the first team rotation and the second team to challenge Brescia away.

Allegri's expression was not too good throughout the game, and in the end, Milan also lost 2-1 at home to Brescia, breaking their record of winning all the games they had played in the second half of the league.

The next day, a reporter directly broke the news that Allegri had a meeting with Milan executives, but the results of the talks were not satisfactory.

Allegri and Galliani are said to have even had a big fight in the conference room.

The authenticity of the news cannot be verified, but it is clear that for the rest of the Italian fans who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, they don't care about the authenticity of the news, they just have fun watching it.

However, more follow-up news did not come out of Milan again.

Perhaps only a small number of players in the Milan team know that Allegri is indeed on fire this time, and the quarrel with Galliani is also real.

But in the end, the two had a quarrel over the development of Milan in the coming seasons, but they also reconciled on the phone again after they cooled down.

Later, Leon and Allegri also had a sincere conversation in the office.

Facing Uncle Yao, Li Ang was grateful in his heart.

After all, I trust myself and use my coach when I give myself the opportunity.

So Uncle Yu asked, "If I needed you to stay, would you be willing to stay in Milan?" This sentence.

Li Ang pondered for a moment, and finally did not say good things to deceive Uncle Yu, but gave an honest answer.

"I would love to continue to play under you, but will you stay at Milan, sir? If you are no longer in Milan in a few years, where will I go? ”

Leon's answer and rhetorical question made Allegri speechless, and for a while, Allegri could only shake his head with a wry smile of relief.

"I can't give you a definite answer, but I probably understand what you mean: Milan is really not the best place for you to develop and grow in the future, or rather, the whole of Serie A."

"I'm sorry, sir."

"No, no, don't apologize to me, your arrival has helped this club regain the league title, even if you are about to leave, but I hope that the Milan fans, Milan, and me, and you will leave each other with good and relaxing memories."

After saying this, Allegri reached out and gently patted Leon on the shoulder.

"Come on, the season is not over yet, we have one last event to complete, say goodbye to us with this title, it will also be the best goodbye gift you can leave for the Milan fans."

After ending his conversation with Allegri, Leon threw himself into training with a more positive attitude.

He felt that Uncle Yu was right, in the last competition of the season that can still win the title, he wants to use his best performance to help Milan reach the top.

Then use this trophy to say a final goodbye to the Milan fans.

On May 1, in the 35th round of Serie A between Milan and Bologna, Leon made his debut again at the San Siro.

And the Milan fans at the scene also issued the most ardent and excited slogans, asking Leon not to leave Milan at the end of the season.

Looking at this scene, many reporters instantly recalled the situation when Milan fans kept Kaka.

At that time, Kaka was also reluctant to support the fans of Milan City, but for the sake of the club's finances, he eventually boarded the plane to Madrid.

And now, when he first joined Milan, he got the nickname "New Kaka" from the Italian media.

He is also called by his parent club Real Madrid, and is about to return to Madrid at the end of the season.

This has happened twice in less than two years, and it is indeed a bit cruel for Milan fans.

Leon pursed the corners of his mouth, his eyes scanned the Milan fans who were calling him earnestly, and finally resisted the urge to do something to wave.

The afternoon's game was not intense, with Bologna in a safe position on the relegation zone and Milan doing more tactical drills for the upcoming Coppa Italia.

Therefore, neither team invested too much manpower in the offensive end, and the final score remained 0-0.

The two teams shook hands and made peace, but the public opinion after the game made a big noise.

Various Italian media outlets rushed to report the news at the San Siro about the Milan fans retaining Leon.

On the evening of May 10, before the second leg of the Coppa Italia semi-final between Milan and Palermo, the same scene was repeated at the Barbera Stadium, Palermo's home stadium.

The Milan fans who traveled with the team cheered for the team and did not forget to put up a huge banner calling on Leon to stay in Milan.

Li Ang, who started the game and played 90 minutes of the game, still left with his teammates thanking the fans with a complicated expression.

And the Milan fans, who witnessed Milan's 2-0 victory over Palermo in the final second leg and 3-0 in the second leg, advanced to the Coppa Italia final were also a little less excited and excited.

For so many days, Li Ang has not announced his decision through any media, which has clearly explained his attitude.

He will eventually return to Real Madrid, return to La Liga under the call of Mourinho, and go to a higher platform to further grow.

But Milan fans are really not half dissatisfied with Leon.

At the end of the day, Leon's time in Milan was too short, and his performance in this short loan period was too dazzling.

The fans who dazzled Milan only remembered the surprise and joy he brought to them.

Therefore, after the final regret and pity, Milan fans can only force themselves to be relieved as soon as possible.

Before the Coppa Italia final began, Serie A ended first.

Milan also held a grand championship celebration at the San Siro at home after the 37th round of Serie A matches.

On that day, there was a thunderous roar of joy in the city, and no Milan fans were discussing the question of Leon's stay next season.

It seems that in the joy and excitement of the championship celebration, all the bad emotions have been suppressed for the time being.

Li Ang also finally calmed down.

Such an ending was already the best for him.

The fans' no longer tangled and relieved is what he wants to see the most.

After the celebrations, all the Milan players were fully engaged in training for the final big match of the season.

On the evening of May 30th, AC Milan and Inter Milan began their final match for the Coppa Italia at the Olympic Stadium in Rome.

The two teams, also from Milan, also met for the third time this season.

In the first two direct conversations, Milan defeated Inter, and the second Milan victory also directly shattered Inter's championship dream.

Therefore, Milan's players have the psychological advantage of having the upper hand in the face of Inter Milan at this time.

And Allegri made it as tactically as possible to let Milan avoid the scene that would lead to a rout because of the underestimation of the enemy.

After all, the main defense of the final, at least in the first half, Milan had to test Inter's offensive firepower first, and this style of play was indeed too difficult to overturn.

At 21:00 that night, the game officially started, and Inter Milan took the lead.

Leonardo did develop a preemptive attacking strategy in the final, and he was very unwilling to lose to Milan in the last game.

This time around, he was wary of Milan's starting duo of strikers Ibrahimovic and Cassano.

At the same time, he also made targeted tactical arrangements for Li Ang, who brought them huge trouble in the last round.

It's a pity that in today's game, Milan played much more conservatively than Inter imagined.

Throughout the first half, Li Ang didn't even cross the middle line a few times, not to mention attacking forward, and he didn't even cross the middle line a few times.

His and Gattuso's squatting sweep defence kept Milan's midfield defence steady.

And Milan also used a "non-attacking" first half to let the whole Inter team learn what is called real Gou.

Inter Milan played an attack for a while, and seeing that Milan just couldn't press it out, they simply stabilized the formation and didn't attack.

The grinding degree of the two teams should be placed in the Premier League and La Liga, which may have been complained about by their own fans.

But in Serie A, such a scene could not make waves in the hearts of Inter and Milan fans at all.

The final is an unnamed game.

Such a phenomenon is very common in Serie A.

Inter are counting on this title as a fig leaf for the defeat of the season on both fronts, and Milan are also counting on this title to bring the season to a smooth end.

Both sides are teams that value the result of the championship more than the process, and neither is willing to make mistakes easily.

Fans can only focus on the second half, or even the subsequent extra time.

By the 73rd minute of the game, neither side had the slightest intention of changing formations.

But as soon as the game entered the seventy-fifth minute, Uncle Yu suddenly called Pato on the bench to warm up on the sidelines.

Such substitutions are actually quite common, after all, before going into overtime, it must be more likely to be replaced by a more physical offensive player.

Leonardo didn't think much about it, and routinely called up several offensive players on his bench to start warming up.

But in the 88th minute of the second half, at the last moment when he was about to enter injury time, Li Ang, who had not been inserted in the whole game, suddenly began to move!

After a decisive and slightly unusual positive scramble, after snatching back the ball from Sneijder's feet, Leon decisively began to step forward!

He was followed by the forward midfielder Boateng, and Milan's forward insertion Hum Ha II will very successfully disrupt Inter's backfield defense at this moment!

And just when all the Inter fans and defenders thought that Leon was going to take advantage of the situation to send a through pass to Ibrahimovic in front of him.

Leon passed the ball in the opposite direction to what they had predicted!

On the right edge of the Inter penalty area, Pato, who had already been prepared, faced the pass pushed diagonally by Li Ang, and had already stretched his posture to shoot.

Ranocchia, who rushed over to make up for the defense, was still half a beat slower, and in the end he could only watch Pato finish the shot with his left foot!

A beautiful arc crossed the Inter penalty area, and Sassel's reaction was very quick, but in the end it was not faster than the speed of the football!

When the football bounced across the net at the theoretical dead end of the almost crossbar and the goalpost, Li Ang only felt a roar in his ears, and his thoughts soared into the sky with the fierce cheers that suddenly burst out from the scene!

It's over!

Milan scored the decisive goal in the last minute when regular time was about to run out!

They are about to win their second trophy of the season!

Allegri who was hit by this huge surprise was like every Milan fan in the stands at the moment.

Excitedly and passionately "catapulted" from the sidelines, and then tightly hugged his assistant!

In a trance, Li Ang, who was pushed by Ibrahimovic to celebrate with his teammates on his shoulders, finally couldn't hold back his eyes when he looked at the eager and excited faces of Milan fans near the corner flag area.

Li Ang, who didn't want the live camera to capture himself in tears, finally chose to cover his face with a jersey.

But his raised arms and waving palms were clear to all Milan fans.

This moment still belongs to their little lion.

It's a final goodbye to them.

In the last battle, the last championship won by this gang of Milan.

He let out a silent but most passionate cry.

At this moment, all the Milan fans heard that sentence!

“Forza milan！！！”

It could have been sent earlier, but it was changed in the end.

Save another hour and go to bed, and be sure to wake up early tomorrow.

Good night to the bigwigs!
