Chelsea chasing Milan MVP again
A few days ago, according to the British “Moore Sports” report, Chelsea are planning to negotiate with AC Milan again in the winter window for Portuguese striker Rafael Leo. Their plan is to convince Milan to release an offer of 90 million euros plus a player. People, and the players who can be exchanged include Odoi, Pulisic and Chaloba and Ziyech.
Chelsea have been chasing Leo in the summer window this year, and just before closing the window, they also made an offer for Leo. It is said that their final total offer reached 120 million euros. The price is surprising, and Milan still rejected the Blues. Because they want to keep Leo.
However, it is not easy to keep Leo. Leo scored 11 goals and had 10 assists in 34 Serie A games last season and won the Serie A MVP, and his contract has less than 2 years left. His current annual salary is 1.5 million, Milan initially wanted to triple him to 4.5 million euros, but was rejected by his agent Mendes, and according to Italian media reports, his current asking price is 7 million euros. There is a big gap between the contract renewal conditions and Milan.
In addition, Leo may face compensation of 19 million euros due to the lawsuit with his old club Sporting Lisbon, and he also hopes to use this as a condition for renewing his contract with Milan. These circumstances make Leo’s contract renewal very complicated, and if he is sold, these problems will be thrown to Chelsea, so Milan is not completely excluded from selling Leo, the main problem is the price.
According to “Moore Sports”, Chelsea will negotiate with Milan again in the winter window. The offer they prepared is 90 million euros in cash and a player to join the transaction, because Milan has recently injured a lot of players. 9 injuries have seriously affected the pace of the team’s progress, and they also hope to make supplements in the winter window, so Chelsea hopes to take this opportunity to sell some unused players in their team to AC Milan to reduce costs. Pulisic, Ziyech, Chaloba and the loaned Odoi can all join the transaction, and how will Milan choose?
