Leao was captured walking past the mix zone following the loss when he told a reporter: “Do your job well.”

It is unknown what caused the Portuguese star’s outburst.

Leao was taken off along with ex-Chelsea winger Christian Pulisic in a tactical decision manager Stefano Pioli was forced to defend.

He said: “Pulisic and Leao have confidence. Players like them, even on a difficult evening, can make an important play.

“I made the changes when I thought it was right.”

Pioli recently raised eyebrows with a bizarre response when asked if Leao and Theo Hernandez were back to their best.

He said: “Yes. Out of necessity Theo had made himself available to play as a central defender and in my opinion he did it brilliantly.

“On the wing they hear each other, they smell each other, they know each other, they kiss each other, I kiss them too when they score a goal.”

He added: “I think Theo had difficulty last year in getting over the disappointment of the World Cup final, the fatigue of the World Cup in that period.

“This year when we restarted the season I found him to be very positive, very proactive.

“He has become a leader of this team, he doesn’t talk much.

“The games he played as a central defender made him understand how much more attentive and active he can be in the defensive phase.

“He has such great potential that he absolutely must continue like this.”
