CorSera: Milan set price tag for Leao amid Chelsea interest and complex renewal

By Oliver Fisher -

AC Milan would be forced to consider offers if Rafael Leao were to not renew his contract with the club, and a price has reportedly been set.

Today’s edition of the Corriere della Sera (via PianetaMilan) speas about the much discussed issue of Leao’s contract renewal as he continues his Serie A MVP form from last season with eight goal contributions already to his name.

The Portuguese winger is one of the most coveted players in Europe. During the summer transfer market, many informal offers arrived, with the probability that in January they could become concrete.

Chelsea are leading the race and during the Champions League match on Wednesday at Stamford Bridge they will have the opportunity to watch Leao up close. Paolo Maldini was clear: no player in the world is non-transferable, but for less than €100m Leao will not go anywhere.

Maldini also mentioned how Leao seems to have expressed a will to stay, which will be an absolutely crucial starting point in the negotiations.

  1. And there we have it. Leao is as good as gone. I just hope we get Maldinis price to help backfill that spot and a better RW. The Napoli game showed we don’t have to rely on him however a bette RW is needed. CDK will step up and is looking better and will grow even more in the second half of the season

    1. I’m sure they’ll be able to upgrade the RW and get a decent LW with that money. If you think positively about this, it’s far easier to defend against a team that can only score/attack from one wing than against a team that has capable wingers on BOTH sides. Hopefully Milan will jump from the former to the latter if Leao leaves.

  2. He is not going anywhere. Chelsea ahave already got nkunku what do they need leao for. Btw we are beating chelsea 3-1 tomorrow

  3. He is not going anywhere. Chelsea have already got nkunku and he will arive in January so what do they need leao for. Btw we are beating chelsea 3-1 tomorrow

  4. We should renew Leao, the guy is still developing we should give him a 3 yrs. I am sure we can find the purchase of a quality right winger if we manage to retain the Scudetto.
    We can thereafter sale him for more than 150 in two seasons time. He will have won us the champions league by then.
