AC Milan will try and find a way to agree a renewal with Rafael Leao but it is an issue that is unlikely to be resolved soon, it is claimed.

Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky (via MilanNews) gave an update on the situation linked to Leao, stating that Milan need to try and get the winger to extend ‘as soon as possible’ and above all to get through the January transfer window.
That is because there will be active teams next month. Chelsea, for example, received the bad news that Armando Broja’s injury will see him out for the rest of the season and they will therefore sign another striker. Then, if they have the economic power to present an offer of €100m+ for Leao, Di Marzio ‘does not know’ what will happen.
Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara ‘want to try to renew his contract and will do everything to do so’. If the player makes it just an economic question then he could leave, but if it were a matter of signing somewhere he feels valued, then Leao may well renew.
