The most promising player in Europe says ‘no’ to Real Madrid

It is expected that next summer will be a busy one in Valdebebas offices, because once the issue of renovations is finalized, the focus will be on strengthening the ranks of the team.

Rafael Leao is one of the most promising players in Europe, and his performances with Milan have sparked interest from many teams, including Real Madrid. The Italian newspaper “La Gazzetta dello Sport” revealed the decision that the Portuguese made regarding his future.

Rafael Leao was one of the names that Real Madrid had on its agenda for the future. The Portuguese winger puts in an impressive performance, his speed and verticality being his two main assets.

In this way, according to the aforementioned Italian newspaper, Rafael Leao has decided to renew his contract with AC Milan. Let’s remember that the Portuguese player has a contract with the Rossoneri until 2024, meaning that he has only one season left in the ranks of the Italian team.

For this reason, Real Madrid has shown interest in signing Leao next summer, due to his contractual status. But the Italian newspaper confirmed that the wing rejected any Madrid attempt.

Therefore, it seems that Liao’s renewal will be very soon. The Portuguese will receive an amount of nearly seven million euros, which is the number that the player requested in order to agree to continue in Italy.

Real Madrid suffered a severe setback with this news, because if this information is confirmed, Liao’s arrival will become a pipe dream in the near future. Thus, the white team will have to target another player’s name.

The issue of Liao’s renewal with Milan has become almost a “state issue” in Italy, as he is one of the most prominent stars of the Italian League. But according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Portuguese has already made a decision.
