Rafael Leão Transfer from Milan to Liverpool

Liverpool have emerged as suitors for AC Milan winger Rafael Leão with Bayern Munich’s interest stalling. Christian Falk states that Arsenal are also keen on the Portugal international as their top alternative to Barcelona-linked Nico Williams of Athletic Club.

Liverpool have been associated with a potential move for Rafael Leao in the upcoming summer transfer window. Former Premier League scout Mick Brown noted that Leao meets many of Liverpool's requirements due to his explosive speed and direct playing style. Brown highlighted Leao's versatility, as he can operate on either wing or centrally, which could enhance Liverpool's attacking options with added goals and creativity. Leao contributed to 25 goals last season and is seen as a possible upgrade over players like Darwin Nunez or Federico Chiesa, who are rumored to be considering departures from Liverpool. However, AC Milan might be reluctant to let Leao go easily and could demand a high transfer fee for him.

Liverpool are considering an approach for AC Milan's Rafael Leao, as AC Milan have set an enticing price tag for him. AC Milan have set an asking price of €100m for Leao, despite a clause of €175m that will be activated in the summer. Liverpool are considering a move for him if Luis Diaz is to leave.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has reportedly identified Rafael Leao as the ideal replacement for Luis Diaz, who is rumored to be on the verge of a move to Barcelona. With Barcelona eager to secure Diaz's services, Liverpool might be open to the idea of selling the attacker. This potential sale would strengthen Liverpool's financial position, giving them an advantage over the Spanish club in the race to sign Leao, positioning them as front-runners for the Portuguese international. Leao, currently in impressive form for AC Milan with nine goals and eight assists this season, is said to be interested in a move to the Premier League. Reports suggest that all indications point to Rafael Leao being closer to joining the Premier League than heading to Camp Nou, making him a significant addition if Diaz were to leave.
