Leão Poised to Leave AC Milan as Turkish Clubs Step Up

A sale would provide Milan the transfer cash they need to reinvest in the squad.

Overview

  • Fenerbahçe have arranged meetings with Leão’s representatives in Milan and are preparing a large package that Italian reports value at about €8–10 million per season in wages plus bonuses.
  • AC Milan are open to selling and are seeking roughly €50m–€60m for a permanent transfer or a structured loan with an obligation to buy to secure the funds.
  • Galatasaray have sent Milan a letter proposing an initial one-year loan with an option to buy, making Turkey the only market with truly concrete approaches so far.
  • Leão has confirmed he has discussed a possible exit with the club but remains under contract and will report for pre-season at Milanello on July 29 while talks continue.
  • Market work is reportedly being coordinated by super-agent Jorge Mendes, but Fenerbahçe face Financial Fair Play and squad-quota limits that could shape the final offer and timing.
