AC Milan star Rafael Leao has been advised against joining Chelsea due to Graham Potter's team selection headache. The 23-year-old was heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge in the summer as Thomas Tuchel looked to bolster his side's frontline.
And, even after the German's sacking, the Blues are said to still be monitoring the forward's situation at the San Siro. But, according to former Rossoneri striker Jean Pierre Papin, Leao should steer away from penning a deal in west London, with the newly-appointed Chelsea boss already treated to a wealth of attacking options which poses a problem.
In an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport, as quoted by Football Italia, he gave his thoughts on the speculation regarding the Portuguese star's future. Papin said: "Maldini said that if he wants to become even stronger, he must stay. I agree with Paolo.
