Milan is actively exploring a significant trade involving Rafael Leao and Ruben Dias, with Jorge Mendes at the helm of negotiations. The Italian club is prepared to pay a substantial fee to secure the move, according to Mediaset. Leao, who joined Manchester City from Benfica for €71 million in 2020, has since become a key player for the Premier League champions, earning four titles and a Champions League trophy.
Milan's focus is on finding a suitable replacement for the Brazilian forward, who has put multiple offers, including those from Galatasaray and the Saudi Pro League, on hold while awaiting more attractive proposals. The club aims to secure at least €60 million for Leao, a demand met with resistance from the Turkish side. Mendes, who recently spent six hours at Milan's headquarters upon signing Diego Moreira, remains confident that the representative will bring in compelling offers.
While the deal appears highly improbable due to Leao's wages, Milan is determined to improve their defense, even if it means moving on from the mercurial forward before his situation worsens.
