Rafael Leao is still among the players available for sale at AC Milan during the summer transfer window, but the chances of a transfer to Chelsea have faded. The Italian club is now waiting for a suitable offer to determine the future of their winger.
Football Italia has reported that the rumors connecting Rafael Leão to a move to Chelsea do not reflect reality, confirming that the English club is not working on a deal to sign the player.
The source clarified that Chelsea has indeed strengthened this position by signing Morgan Rogers. Despite Leão's ability to play as an attacking midfielder, the London club does not consider him among their current targets.
Meanwhile, the source indicated that Milan does not oppose selling Leão this summer, clarifying that the only official offers received so far have come from Turkish clubs, while interest from the Saudi league remains in the early stages without any concrete proposals.
The report added that Leao prefers to continue his career in one of the major European leagues, such as the Premier League or La Liga, or any top-tier European league, if given the opportunity.
The report indicated that Liao's departure is a key step in Milan's strategy to secure the financial resources needed for new signings. Therefore, the club hopes to resolve the player's situation in the coming days.
