Arsenal in Rafael Leao talks
Rafael Leao is undoubtedly one of the most formidable attackers in Europe, and naturally, a host of clubs are already keeping tabs on the Portuguese winger. The AC Milan star has had another commendable season with 24 goal contributions in all competitions for the Rosoneri.
Leao’s latest contract with AC Milan has a huge buyout clause, with some sources suggesting it could be in the region of €175 million. The Rosoneri will likely demand a massive fee in return, should they decide to sell him, with Arsenal now interested in the attacker.
The Gunners have reportedly held talks with Leao’s representatives, which suggests they want to explore further a move. Mikel Arteta considers the Portuguese winger one of his top targets, as Arsenal is in the market for a top-draw wide-attacker, with Pedro Neto also linked.
As per Francois Plateau, Leao would be open to joining Arsenal should a move transpire. However, the Gunners may face plenty of competition in the mix, with some of their big rivals also interested in the winger, and that could prove decisive for AC Milan in commanding a hefty fee in return.
Arsenal faces plenty of competition for Leao
There have been plenty of advances from Spanish clubs, while PSG also looks at Leao as a possible replacement for Kylian Mbappe. However, some big English clubs are chasing the Portuguese forward, with Chelsea being one of the sides that are keen.
There have been reports that Manchester City are also keen and willing to pay a massive fee should they get the green light from Leao and AC Milan. Arsenal will have a fair shout in the race should they join it with vigour, although there are question marks about whether the Gunners have the financial means to pay what may be a club record or even a Premier League record move in the making.
