GdS: Leao’s renewal becomes complicated again due to two obstacles

After everything seemed to be on the right track, the situation related to Rafael Leao’s renewal has once again stalled due to two issues, a report claims.

According to what La Gazzetta dello Sport (via MilanNews) are reporting today, the month of January should have been the one where everything was agreed with Leao over a new contract and his signature arrived.

Instead, the situation has now become complicated again and there are two factors which are currently holding things up. The first is the release clause issue, and whether it remains at €150m or is raised, lowered or removed.

Then, there is the dispute between the two agents that are involved in the negotiations, namely Ted Dimvula – the lawyer who has power of attorney – and Jorge Mendes who has represented Leao for years. Of course, commissions would have to be agreed between all the parties for the signing to arrive.
