AC Milan striker Rafael Leao: Why SPL couldn't tempt me

AC Milan striker Rafael Leao says he wasn't tempted by Saudi money over the summer.

The Portugal striker attracted interest from the Saudi Pro League, despite penning a new deal with the Rossonero in June.

But he insists his head was never turned.

He told GQ: "I haven't achieved great results yet to leave in a league like that.

"In recent days money has spoken louder, but for me a Champions League is worth more than a salary of 10 million, for example."
