Peter Crouch and Jermaine Jenas have explained why Rafael Leao has attracted the attention of Chelsea. The 23-year-old was heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge in the summer but a move failed to materialise.
Leao, who sees his deal at the San Siro expire in less than 18 months, has been closely watched by the Blues since joining the Italian giants in 2019, football.london understands. It's said that talks between Milan and the Portugal international's entourage over a new contract have been ongoing for a while but an agreement is yet to be reached.
After welcoming Mykhailo Mudryk and Noni Madueke to west London last month, it remains to be seen whether Chelsea will reignite interest in Leao. Graham Potter has a wealth of attacking options to choose from now — not to mention the potential arrival of Christopher Nkunku in the summer.
