TMW: Milan eye two possible replacements in case Leao saga doesn’t unlock

AC Milan have two names in mind to potentially replace Rafael Leao in the event they are forced to sell him, according to a report.

According to the latest from TMW, there is a stalemate at the moment between Leao and Milan over a potential renewal as recent talks have not moved things forward. The winger expressed his willingness to stay with the Rossoneri but there hasn’t been any progress of late.

The club’s position has been clear for some time: the offer is €7m net per season and they will not go higher than that because they believe it is a fair offer. If the situation does not unblock itself and the end of the season arrives without a signature, a sale would have to be considered.

Chelsea remain interested, while Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara are evaluating ideas in case everything gets more complicated, such as Allan Saint-Maximin of Newcastle and Noa Lang of Club Brugge.
