Former Sierra Leone international, Michael Lahoud, has criticised Rafael Leao for his “unacceptable” performance for Galatasaray against Trabzonspor.
Leao was unable to make a great impact as Trabzonspor thrashed Galatasaray 4-0, thanks to Mohamed Salah’s hat-trick.
Reacting, Lahoud was unimpressed with Leao’s display, insisting that the former AC Milan star showed a lack of passion during the encounter.
“There is one player who epitomized the lack of passion, it’s Rafael Leao. How much does he make again, €288,000 a week? To put in that sort of performance is unacceptable,” Lahoud said via CBS Sports Golazo.
“This is a big club, not a small club, and it just seems like he is sitting there on vacation. Rafael Leao was completely outplayed by a 22-year-old Portuguese Under-21 international in Noah Saviola.
“Leao needs to wake up today because football could be very unforgiving. This could be one of his last chances to revitalize his career.”
