AC Milan’s firm stance regarding Rafael Leao’s potential exit is making suitors a bit hesitant to advance any further, it is claimed.
The Leao situation is completely at a standstill. Milan remain firm in their position and their valuation of the winger, while the (few) interested teams do not seem inclined to accommodate the Rossoneri’s demands.

Matteo Moretto has published an update claiming that Galatasaray continue to have Leão as their top priority, but Milan are insistent on the exit conditions: they will only consider an outright permanent sale for €50-60m.
The Rossoneri, to date, are not even open to a loan with obligation to buy, as that would alter the payment terms of the transfer. Milan consider Leão transferable and on the market, but the management’s demands are putting potential buyers off.
However, Moretto goes on to add that the situation is ‘absolutely evolving’ and will likely remain open until the end of the transfer window.
It follows on from the story over the weekend which suggested that Galatasaray are willing to bide their time and even potentially wait until September in order to launch a late move for Leao. Given that Milan would need time to find a replacement, that doesn’t feel ideal.
We need to move on from the Leao love affair. It’s unhealthy and unproductive..
So, you wait until the European transfer window closes to sell Leão and then you can’t use that money to buy any European players. Brilliant, just brilliant.
Here’s a crazy idea – how about instead of playing these stupid games with Turkey for the next two weeks wee just cut our losses and sell for 40mil?
Like, let’s just cut our loss, his value is perceived, let’s cut our loss and move on. I know feel Cardinale is holding out cus he overpaid for Ramos and he is looking for a big sales to balance up,
Leao če ostat !!! Igrat če na svom mjestu !!! KRILO LJEVO !!! neče bit povrijeđen i postat če najbolji igrač Milana za nadolazeču sezonu kao i najbolji STRIJELAC
45 to 50€
call back Tare, give him task to sell Estupidman, Musah, Gimenez, RLC, Bondo, Nkunku, Chuck, Tomori, Fofana b4 thinking to sell Leao,
too many useless players & useless managers
Wasn’t he a top talent that would get tons of offers from Barcelona, Man City, PSG and Bayern? should have sold him when he still had value from his two good seasons here.
His market value dropped significantly and we must accept that 40 is a good price! Stop wasting time and let go off him. He never wanted to develop and he wants out than leave
