There are growing rumours that Rafael Leao is a concrete summer transfer target for Paris Saint-Germain, and a report has suggested that they have a trump card to play.
This morning’s edition of Corriere della Sera (via PianetaMilan) writes that Kylian Mbappé is set to leave PSG on a free transfer for Real Madrid and thus they are on the lookout for potential replacements on the left wing.
Leao is one of the names near the top of their wish list. He is under contract with Milan until 30 June 2028 and he has a €175m release clause in his contract, as well as a salary of €7m net per season including bonuses.
There is an interesting detail regarding the clause though: it is only exercisable from the 5th to the 15th of July of each year. Outside of those dates, any interested club will have to negotiate with Milan.
PSG director Luis Campos is apparently ‘crazy about Leao’ because it was he who brought him to Lille from Sporting CP back in the summer of 2019.
However, it is not only Leao that is in the sights of the Parisians: they also like Victor Osimhen of Napoli, who has many admirers in the Premier League and could therefore end up in England.
