With reports suggesting that Paris Saint-Germain are interested in Rafael Leao, a report has suggested that AC Milan have outlined their stance on the situation.
With Kylian Mbappe’s situation at the Parisian club constantly changing, there is a need to look for a concrete option next year, and should the Frenchman depart to Real Madrid, they need to have a player of substantial quality ready to replace him.
Rafael Leao is the player in mind, and he is someone who the club have held a long-term interest in, but as MilanNews reports, there are no plans to sell the Portuguese winger for much less than his release clause of €175million, a figure that the French Giants could easily afford.
The clause is only active at the start of July to allow the Rossoneri to pursue other options with enough time to find their replacement and then bed them into the squad. However, if no offer matching their valuation arrives, the Diavolo will not sell.
This is something that PSG are aware of, though. They know they will have to dig deep into their pockets for the Portuguese star, and they will make attempts, but it will not be an easy feat to pry Leao from Milan.
