Rafael Leao Trains in Corinthians Shirt Amid Milan Future Uncertainty

Rafael Leao is on holiday in Brazil, but nothing about his routine suggests a player switching off. The Milan forward has been spotted training at Corinthians’ facilities, fully kitted out in the Brazilian club’s jersey, as speculation over his next move gathers pace.

Fresh from the 2026 World Cup, the 27-year-old has chosen São Paulo as the backdrop for his off-season work. Corinthians’ official X account released images of Leao going through drills at their training centre, the Portuguese winger wearing the club’s shirt as he put in the hard yards.

He didn’t just pass through. Leao met Corinthians players and staff, sharing the pitch and the dressing-room corridors with the squad while he maintains his fitness ahead of a pivotal summer.

The timeline is clear. By the end of the month he is due back in Italy to rejoin Milan and resume pre-season with the Rossoneri. The uncertainty lies in how long he will stay.

Leao has already admitted this week that he has spoken with Milan about a possible departure in the upcoming transfer window. The expectation around the club is that he could leave this summer, a major decision for both player and hierarchy after his rise to stardom in Serie A.

For now, though, the market has not exploded around him. The only concrete offer on the table has come from Fenerbahce, and Leao is not prepared to accept that proposal. No agreement, no green light, no move.

So the images from Brazil take on a different weight. A Milan star, in a Corinthians shirt, working alone on the next chapter of his career while the transfer market hesitates.

He will soon walk back through the doors at Milanello. Whether it is for a full season or a brief farewell lap remains the question hanging over Milan’s summer.
