AC Milan legend Arrigo Sacchi feels Rafael Leao lacks support.

Sacchi knows when Milan struggle, it is the Portugal striker who receives the most scrutiny.

He wrote for La Gazzetta dello Sport: "We need to convince him, help him. Maybe with specific training sessions.

"He is an important capital for the club, he earns a lot of money and must absolutely be valorised. Football requires that there be 11 players and that everyone must help each other. If someone doesn't do it, it's not good."

Sacchi explains his fluctuating performance this way: "It could be a mental thing, of motivation, of lack of ambition. I don't know. What I know is that he could do more and with greater continuity.

"In my Milan? I don't know if it would be was so available to the collective. Let's ask ourselves whether he made the improvements that everyone expected or not."
