Alright, so I was thinking about AC Milan the other day, specifically about Rafael Leão. He always looks quite imposing on the pitch, definitely has that height advantage in certain situations. It got me wondering, you know, exactly how tall is he?
My usual process kicked in. Grabbed my phone – it’s usually right next to me anyway. Opened up the browser, nothing fancy, just the one I always use. Went straight to the search bar.
I typed in something simple, probably just “rafael leao height”. Didn’t need to overcomplicate it. Hit enter and waited for the results to load up. Took maybe a second or two.
Okay, so the results page came up. You know how it is, you get the little info box right at the top sometimes. Saw the number 1.88 m pretty quick. That’s metric, of course.
Scrolled down a tiny bit, just to see if other sources matched up. Looked at a couple of the sports sites listed there, places like Transfermarkt or the official league sites usually have this stuff. They all seemed to agree, showing 188 cm.
Sometimes you see slight variations with athlete heights, maybe an old measurement or a different source, but 188 cm seemed consistent across the main, reliable places I glanced at. That converts to roughly 6 feet 2 inches, for those who think in feet and inches like I sometimes do.
So, yeah, that was my little practical search. Started with a simple question watching him play, did a quick search, checked a couple of sources to feel sure, and landed on 188 cm or 6 foot 2 inches. Simple as that, really. Got the info I was looking for.
