Chelsea and Arsenal have been handed a new statement on the future of Rafael Leao at AC Milan amid links with a potential transfer. The Portugal international has impressed in recent seasons and with a contract running until only the summer of 2024, there could be the opening for an exit.
This campaign the 23-year-old has eight goals and six assists in 19 Serie A appearances, even despite the struggles of the Rossoneri to reclaim back-to-back Scudetti. It means there's little surprise when there are reports of teams interested, with plenty of hints surrounding a switch to Chelsea in particular.
With his contract dwindling, talks are said to have opened between Leao and Milan over an extended stay, though things may have changed. Reports on January transfer deadline day claimed that talks had collapsed and that an exit could be on the cards for the winger.
