This summer, Rafael Leao could be available to purchase and AC Milan have already been receiving calls from interested parties.
Over the next few months, Milan are likely to get a few calls about Leao and what is happening with his future. After all, this is the closest that he has ever been to leaving the club that he has called home for more than half a decade.

A few years ago, this situation was expected, albeit with different settings. The hopes were that he’d be a world beater, commanding a massive fee. Instead, he could be available for as little as €50 million.
Leao to the Premier League
As it stands, the situation is more than confusing. Ultimately, there is little known about the true wishes of all parties and what the fallout could be. It is difficult to assess.
What is not difficult to imagine, though, is that interest will be present and Fabrizio Romano, via MilanNews, states that there has already been interest from England.
“As for Barcelona, apart from the fact that he is a player appreciated by President Joan Laporta, there is nothing: the Blaugrana club has not started concrete negotiations with Milan or with the player’s agents.
“There are many rumours coming from England. I can tell you that there are some Premier League clubs that have made calls to understand Leao’s situation: what is his value, how much do Milan want, and what is the situation of his salary?
“Two Premier League clubs have called to get information about Leao: at the moment, there are no official proposals or negotiations initiated. A year ago, Bayern were also interested, but today the Bavarian club has different names in the crosshairs for the position, like Anthony Gordon.”
