"Juraj Kucka has clarified comments that he made a while ago about Rafael Leao, based on a game that he saw first-hand. Kucka did four years with Genoa before moving to Milan in 2015 a fee widely reported to be in the region of €3m plus bonuses. He ended up becoming a fan favourite at the San Siro and stayed for a couple of seasons before heading to Trabzonspor, then moving on to Watford."
"A clarification arrives Kucka spoke to MilanVibes and he was asked about the comment he made on Leao, with his response relayed by MilanNews. I read an old interview of yours where you talked about Leao and you saw him and he was 'walking'... "I went to see a match when I was in Parma and he was 'walking', but it wasn't just me who said it, my friends who were with me also said it.""
Juraj Kucka recalled attending a match and initially thinking Rafael Leao 'was walking' on the pitch and would not go far. Kucka noted that friends who watched the match shared the same impression. Kucka outlined his career path from four years at Genoa to a 2015 move to Milan for a reported €3m plus bonuses, followed by spells at Trabzonspor and Watford. Kucka later clarified that he did not like his earlier comment, acknowledged that Leao subsequently showed his talent, and expressed relief at Leao's development into a strong player.
