Rafael Leao won the title of player of the season in the Seria A last Sunday, after Milan won the championship after 11 years.
People might not notice his valuable contributions in the last month and the whole season, but it must not be allowed to be ignored.
First of all, some of his numbers this season:
3802 minutes
16 goals
13 assists
Involvement in goal or assist every 131.1 minutes
Expected goals 12.4
Scored 3.6 more goals than he was expected to
6.4 successful dribbles per 90 minutes
1.35 produced situations per 90 minutes
And now note, he either scored or made an assist in all of Milan's last 6 games that were critical to win the championship.

This kid arrived on Money Time, gave a great performance and was an integral part of this championship, if not the most integral.
His first step, augmented by his speed and physical strength, is something unique.
He has awesome skills, and in my opinion? He is one of the best players today.
Milan must keep him in its ranks, just must.
