Report: Milan forward Leao one of two major Serie A targets for Spanish giant

By Euan Burns -

AC Milan forward Rafael Leao is one of two major stars from Serie A that Real Madrid are weighing up for in the near future, a report claims.

As has been reported by Spanish media outlet SPORT (via Calciomercato.com), LaLiga giants Real Madrid have got Leao on their list of forwards to pursue a move for.

Alarm bills have begun to ring after the 3-2 loss away at Rayo Vallecano on Monday night, especially in light of Karim Benzema’s repeated absence through injury.

The fact that Kylian Mbappe did not arrive in the summer and Luka Jovic was loaned to Fiorentina means that they are light in that area.

Carlo Ancelotti has made the club aware that he wants fresh blood in attack and as well as the obvious names of Mbappe and Erling Haalan, club president Florentino Perez is also looking at Leao and Napoli’s Victor Osimhen.

It is assumed that Eden Hazard would need to leave before a move can be made.

  1. Unlikely. They have Vini jnr at LWF. Leao not the profile they need.

    Osimhen, I could believe Real are interested. But Leao suitors more likely to be EPL clubs

    1. There are many in Spain who See’s vinicuis jounior’s future in real Madrid as a centre forward as an eventual replacement for benzema , that makes raffel leao and khava as targets on the left .
