Overview
- Milan have put contract talks on hold for Rafael Leão, whose deal runs to 2028 on roughly €5.5 million net per year.
- Despite a €170 million release clause, reports indicate the club would consider offers around €80–90 million this summer.
- No major bids have been received, with Italian reports saying Milan are hoping for interest from Premier League sides or Saudi clubs.
- In the loss to Lazio, Leão delayed his substitution as Mike Maignan pushed him off the pitch, he resisted a conciliatory hug from Max Allegri, and a spat with Christian Pulisic reportedly continued in the dressing room.
- If a sale progresses, Milan are reported to be evaluating Leipzig’s Antonio Nusa as a potential €35 million replacement.
