Rafael Leao's contract renewal ralks are really difficult. AC Milan club management and directors Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara would like to keep the star. However, a lot of effort will be needed.
In fact, as per Calciomercato.com, Chelsea, Manchester City and PSG are among the top clubs who are keen on the Portuguese left-winger and this is a threat for the Rossoneri club as they have not reached an agreement for the renewal yet. The player's deal expires in June 2024.
In addition to that, Leao is now represented by a lawyer who is trusted by his father. So, there are two representatives in question including Jorge Mendes, which makes the situation really complicated. This issue could result into a conflict with the famous agent and it seems to be seen how they will deal with the fine that is to be paid to Sporting Lisbon.
Last May the appeal of Leao's lawyers was also rejected, for which the Court of Milan imposed the foreclosure of 20% of his salary , but the story is still far from being concluded, given that all the parties to the dispute are awaiting the final decision of the FIFA Dispute Resolution Chamber, which will have to determine the final amount due to Sporting in the coming months.
