Italy World Cup winner Giorgio Chiellini has disclosed that AC Milan star, Rafael Leao is not on the same level with Real Madrid duo of Vinicius and Rodrygo.
Chiellini made this known on the backdrop of his poor performance for Portugal in the ongoing Euro 2024 Championship.

“We all wish he was a bit further ahead (in his development), but he’s not: he lacks the numbers and his potential remains largely unrealised. I don’t know if he’ll ever have that click in his mind to score more goals and provide more assists,” said Juventus hero Chiellini.
“As of today, for me, he is a great substitute rather than a permanent starter for a team aiming to win either a European Championship or the Champions League.
“If the benchmark is Vinicius and Rodrigo, he is not at their level.”
