RedBird founder and managing partner, Gerry Cardinale, saw in front of him how important Rafael Leao is to AC Milan as he contributed to the derby win with 2 goals and 1 assist. The player is too strong on one on one situations, he is fast, technical and can definitely make the difference.
As per Il Corriere della Sera in today's print edition, the Portuguese left-winger of the Rossoneri is among the priorities for the new ownership. His contract runs until June 2024.
As reported by the Italian newspaper, the next months will be decisive: his agent Jorge Mendes refused another offer from Milan that is set at 6 million euros net per season. As per the report, 7.5 million euros yearly net salary is needed instead to keep Leao.
