Milan stand firm on Leao valuation after six-hour Mendes meeting

Milan have maintained their stance on the valuation of winger Rafael Leao during a prolonged meeting with agent Jorge Mendes, reports suggest. The agent was at the club's headquarters for over six hours on Wednesday, but negotiations over a potential sale have yet to yield any progress. Leao, who has been with Milan since 2018 and helped the team win the Scudetto in 2021-22, is currently valued at €50m by the club.

Despite Leao expressing a desire to make a move abroad after the 2025-26 season, Milan refuses to budge on their asking price. The Italian giants have been actively seeking a buyer, with Galatasaray being the closest contender, offering a fee slightly above €40m. However, negotiations are ongoing, and it appears that a deal may still be within reach.
