Barcelona know the asking price for AC Milan star Rafael Leão | OneFootball

La Liga giants Barcelona are aware of the kind of sum which would be required to coax AC Milan into the sale of Rafael Leão this summer.

That’s according to Diario Sport, who have on Saturday provided an insight into the situation.

The name of wide-man Leão has of course reemerged in the transfer chatter surrounding Hansi Flick’s Barcelona over the last 24 hours.

This comes after the Blaugrana saw their squad building plans for next season thrown up in the air, upon chief attacking target Nico Williams penning a new long-term contract with Athletic Club.

The likes of Luis Díaz and Marcus Rashford, in turn, are back under consideration at the Camp Nou.

Another potential option for Deco and co, though, and one who has been linked with Barcelona on a whole host of occasions in the past, is the aforementioned Rafael Leão.

Super agent Jorge Mendes would reportedly be willing to broker a deal between the parties over the weeks ahead.

The problem, however, lies in the Portuguese’s price-tag.

As per a report from Sport:

‘Rafa Leao’s exit clause is 150 million euros, but the Italian club would sell him for about 70 million fixed plus some variables.’
