CM: €7m demands and the shadow of PSG – Milan must resolve Leao situation soon | OneFootball

AC Milan and Rafael Leao both want to continue together but a positive conclusion must be reached on negotiations over a renewal, all with Paris Saint-Germain lurking.

Calciomercato.com report that Portuguese forward is ready to lead the team towards a new season where the goal will be to try to repeat the success achieved only a few months ago when the team won the Scudetto, and shortly after the start of the season there will be discussions over a well-earned contract extension.

Milan are still convinced they can extend the agreement with Leao, but they are also aware of the fact that an offer of €7m net per season will be needed to get closer to the demands of Leao’s entourage.

The situation is open but must be closed as quickly as possible because there is the shadow of the PSG lurking. Their sporting director Luis Campos is determined to make an attempt for the Portugal international, who is his protégé from his time at Lille.

However, at the moment there are no margins to open a discussion, because Milan do not want to sell Leao and are pointing at his €150m release clause. Soon, though, it will be necessary to accelerate the extension of his deal expiring in 2024.
