Sport: Real Madrid want to sign two Serie A stars including Milan winger

AC Milan’s Rafael Leao is one of two Serie A stars attracting the interest of European champions Real Madrid, according to a report.

According to SPORT, Florentino Pérez tried to bring Kylian Mbappé to Madrid over the summer but eventually the French international decided to renew with PSG. They chose not to sign a new striker despite Luka Jovic’s exit, even though they had a chance to get Gabriel Jesús before he went to Arsenal.

Los Blancos also had the chance to sign Raúl de Tomás from Espanyol but they decided not to pursue that option and instead he ended up at fellow Madrid-based side Rayo Vallecano.

Now, Real Madrid’s management are looking at a signing next summer to bolster the attack, but not a huge operation while waiting to see how Mbappé and Erling Haaland’s situations develop, because Perez is ‘still obsessed with getting one of these two’.

Victor Osimhen of Napoli and Rafael Leao of Milan are two options mentioned, but the reports suggest that any concrete attempt will depend on Carlo Ancelotti pressing for the move.

  1. Pèrez will not go for leao he already got vini there but yes kylian or haland or osimhen is just the sort of striker he needs post benzema. Connecting leao with real madird is all about increasing media…

    1. People keep citing Vinicius Jr as a reason Madrid won’t sign Leao. Fair enough, but I’ll point out that Vinicius Jr has a contract expiring in 2024, same year as Leao. Ideally (for Madrid) they should have renewed this past summer. But they didn’t. Why? Madrid seem to be in the same boat we are vis-a-vis their star (or one of their stars). If everything was normal they Vini would have already had a contract extension. I get the feeling that there is something going on in the background that people aren’t aware of yet. What if he is asking way too much, or is refusing to renew in the hopes of earning a huge contract from say, Man City, who did not replace Sterling (also a LW)? Perhaps Madrid is hedging? So now we see an avenue for this transfer…

      1. no player in his prime would leave real madrid, every footballers dream destination, for man city.vini is where he has always wanted to be.why would he leave a team that has won an unprecedented five luck titles in the 0ast eight seasons for one that has consistently failed to win a single luck title despite all that oil money.besides, vini is now the marquee player at real madrid
