AC Milan star Rafael Leao has taken to social media on Sunday evening, to show his support for teammate Theo Hernandez.
For those not aware, Milan defender Theo has taken his place front and centre in the Italian media headlines late tonight.
Unfortunately for the Frenchman, however, this has come for altogether less than positive reasons.
After taking to Instagram to unveil a photo of he and his baby son, Theo was greeted with a disgusting wave of abuse.
A number of comments came by way of Napoli supporters, ahead of the fast-approaching Champions League quarter-final 2nd-leg showdown between the two clubs on Tuesday night.
Shockingly, some of those written in Neapolitan dialect went as far as to wish death upon both Theo and his son.

Taking to Twitter a short time ago, Milan wide-man Leao posted the following, assuring his left wing partner in crime that ‘God is always with your family’:
“Unfortunately social networks are an instrument where everyone thinks they can say whatever they like. Don’t worry, brother, God is always with your family.”
Infelizmente as redes sociais são um instrumento onde toda gente pensa que pode dizer o que quiser .. triste são essas pessoas que aproveitam o facto disso para tentar mexer com o nosso psicológico . No passa nada irmão Deus é com a tua família sempre 🙏🏾@TheoHernandez ❤️🖤
