While Milan continues to work to bring the new number 9 to the Rossoneri, all eyes are on Leao: a mind-boggling offer is on the way.
The market of Milan continues to plod along. The issue that continues to take center stage is certainly the one linked to the new number 9 after Olivier Giroud’s farewell. The name at the top of the management of the Via Aldo Rossi club continues to be Joshua Zirkzee, but the requests made by the Dutchman’s entourage on commissions blocked the negotiation. So watch out Manchester United: the Red Devils would have their sights set on the Bologna striker and in the event of no agreement being reached in the next few weeks, they could fit in by satisfying Kia Joorabchian’s requests.
Milan would therefore be evaluating other profiles, with Ermedin Demirovic who would be climbing the hierarchies. The valuation of 25 million euros made by Ausburg falls within the parameters of the Rossoneri club and would reflect, in terms of sought-after characteristics, the perfect striker for Paulo Fonseca.
In addition to the problem for Zirkze, all eyes are also on Rafael Leao. The Portuguese represents a firm point for Milan and has no intention of trying out his number 10. Despite the season not being up to par, the former Lille player represents a certainty in Fonseca’s board, who intends to enhance him even more. Despite his centrality and the 175 million euro clause present in the contract, atriple-digit offer coming from Arabia could make Milan falter.
Milan, shock offer from Arabia for Leao: proposal worth over 100 million
What seemed to be a staple of the Milan of the future is increasingly a big question mark. In addition to the possible interest of some big European clubs, including Paris Saint Germain looking for Kylian Mbappè’s replacement, the one from Arabia also continues to become more and more insistent for Rafael Leao.
The price that Milan places on its star remains that of the release clause, i.e 175 million euros, with no team to date having initiated contact with the club. The offer, however, which seems ready to leave from Arabia, could seriously cause the Rossoneri to falter.
L’Al-Hilal in fact he seems ready to put one on the plate proposed for over 100 million euros. An offer that Milan had no intention of accepting, continuing to ask for the money in the clause to let their number 10 leave. Leao’s will will be decisive, but everything is postponed until the end of the European Championship. Milan trusts in the Portuguese’s desire to continue to grow with the Rossoneri shirt on, but as we know, when faced with money, the heart is difficult to command.
