Manchester United and Chelsea keeping tabs on Milan’s Rafael Leao | OneFootball

Premier League outfits Manchester United and Chelsea are plotting a transfer for Milan’s Rafael Leao.

According to a report by Marco Fallisi of La Gazzetta dello Sport, Milan consider no player untouchable in their team and will listen to all offers this summer transfer window. This development has opened up the doors for Manchester United and Chelsea to bid for Rafael Leao.

While the Portuguese is settled in Milan and is one of the club’s best players, the Rossoneri will not be able to keep him if a gigantic offer arrives. Stefano Pioli is predicted to be sacked at the end of this season and it will be up to the new manager if he decides to keep him or reinvest the proceedings from his sale.

Man United and Chelsea have been probing the 24-year-old for a long time and both clubs have enough liquidity to land the high-profile left winger.

Rafael Leao has a €175 million release clause in his contract and interested clubs will need to undergo long negotiations with Milan to sign him.
