Mediaset: Leao makes ‘absolute priority’ clear as ‘cautious optimism’ filters over renewal

Rafael Leao has given his full priority to AC Milan and to renewing his contract rather than entertaining any interest just yet, a report claims.

Claudio Raimondi spoke on SportMediaset (via MilanNews) and he began with an update on his understanding of the situation pertaining to the renewal of Leao, given that his contract expires in June 2024.

The journalist states that the young Portuguese winger gave ‘absolute priority’ to an extension with the Rossoneri, as confirmed by his words from Qatar a few days ago.

It should be noted that two weeks ago in Dubai at the Globe Soccer Awards there was a meeting between the Rossoneri directors and Jorge Mendes, Leao’s agent.

A ‘cautious optimism’ filters at the moment from Milan’s side regarding this ‘infinite soap opera’, but it must be noted that Real Madrid and Chelsea are the two clubs most interested in the former Lille star and they are waiting for updates.
