Chelsea target Rafael Leao will be at the 2022 World Cup with Portugal as Todd Boehly eyes possible transfer moves to re-shape the Blues squad in his and Graham Potter's image. One World Cup scouting missing has already been ruined for Chelsea after France's Christopher Nkunku was ruled him out of the tournament following a knee injury suffered in training.
However, the Blues will be hoping the same fate is not suffered by Leao as he is set to play a significant role for Portugal after more impressive displays at club level for AC Milan. The 24-year-old has seven goals and nine assists from 20 appearances.
In two of those matches though Leao struggled to have any lasting impact, and depending on how you view the outcome, it could be seen as a positive or negative for Chelsea, with both of those attacking blanks coming in the Champions League group stage matches against Chelsea.
