Enter Rafael Leao. The Portuguese sensation fueled speculation with a cryptic Instagram story featuring a throwback image of Cristiano Ronaldo during his Manchester United prime. While the post didn’t include any words, fans took it as a massive hint.

On X (formerly Twitter), United supporters didn’t hold back their excitement:

• “Rashford replacement right there,” one fan declared.
• Another added, “He saw the Rashford news and started begging it.”
• “Bring bro to United asap,” urged another.

Leao, who has lit up Serie A with his dazzling performances for AC Milan, has long been touted as one of Europe’s elite wingers.

The 25-year-old’s stats back it up—64 goals in all competitions since joining Milan in 2019. And with a growing list of admirers, including Arsenal and Chelsea, Manchester United fans are keen to see him don the famous red jersey.

Adding to the intrigue, a move to Old Trafford would see Leao join a Portuguese contingent already thriving under Ruben Amorim’s management, with Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot firmly established in the squad.
