Former Italy midfielder Massimo Ambrosini has suggested that Rafael Leao should cost more than Jack Grealish as an exit from the San Siro looms. The 23-year-old AC Milan star was heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge in the summer as Chelsea looked to bolster their front-three.
A deal failed to materialise, but the Blues are said to be monitoring the winger's situation after he recently entered talks with the Rossoneri to pen a new contract. Leao, who sees his deal with the Italian giants expire in 2024, reportedly has a €150million (£130.5m) release clause.
Milan have stepped up their efforts to retain the Portugal international amid growing interest in the player, and the west Londoners are believed to be keen to test the club's resolve. According to Calciomercato, Todd Boehly was eager to hold talks with higher-ups at Milan in the first week of October to discuss a potential move for Leao.
