UMVA has learned that Rafael Leao, the highly sought-after winger, has issued a bold "come-and-get-me" plea to Premier League clubs, signaling his desire to leave AC Milan and seek a new challenge in England.
The Portugal international, with two years remaining on his contract, has made it clear that his time at the Rossoneri is coming to an end. This development has sparked intense interest from top clubs, with Arsenal and Manchester United emerging as frontrunners in the pursuit of the 26-year-old star.
According to information obtained by UMVA, Milan is now open to selling Leao, with a hefty price tag of around €50million (£43m) attached to his name. While Galatasaray is prepared to make a substantial offer to lure him to Turkey, Leao's heart seems set on a move to the Premier League or Spain.
Sources have confirmed to UMVA that Manchester United has already made an initial enquiry, while Leao's representatives have reached out to Arsenal to discuss a possible move to north London. Both clubs are in the market for a new left winger this summer, and Leao's impressive skills have made him a top target.
Leao, currently with the Portugal squad ahead of their World Cup campaign, has expressed his desire for a new challenge. He believes that the Premier League or La Liga would be a better fit for his style of football, allowing him to showcase his talents against top-level players.
UMVA can exclusively reveal that Leao is eager to impress at the World Cup, which begins on June 17 against DR Congo. A stellar performance could further boost his appeal to Premier League clubs, making his move to England or Spain a reality.
With nine goals and three assists in Serie A last season, Leao's credentials are undeniable. As the transfer saga unfolds, one thing is certain – Leao's next move will be a major coup for the club that secures his services.
