Manchester City are reportedly willing to offer Rafael Leao a contract worth £200,000 per week in their bid to tempt him to the Etihad Stadium during the January transfer window.
According to Italian outlet tuttomercatoweb (via the Sun ), the Serie A star is set to be offered a mouth-watering deal that would see him earn more than £10million per year at City. The Blues have been hotly tipped to make a move for the Portugal international who will have only one year left on his contract come the summer.
AC Milan are believed to be desperate to get Leao to sign a new deal but simply cannot match City's financial firepower, the report states. The 23-year-old has scored seven goals and provided nine assists in 20 appearances across all competitions this season and has fast become one of the most sought after talents in Europe.
