During the next summer transfer window, Barcelona may very well resume their pursuit of Rafael Leao, AC Milan's winger.
The Blaugrana club management has already tracked the Portuguese player last summer. Some even talked about an all-in approach by the Catalans to acquire him. Milan, however, consistently distanced themselves from this possibility, essentially putting a verbal lock on the player.
Leao is in a tough moment this season - Will this impact the market?
The season, though, hasn’t been going well for the 1999-born winger, and tensions with coach Paulo Fonseca—who often benches him—seem evident. This could lead to a shift in the situation.
The report comes from 'Sport,' the well-known Spanish newspaper, in its online edition.
According to the report, FC Barcelona is already preparing to go after Rafael Leao in the next summer transfer window. Barça's director Deco and head coach Hansi Flick are admirers of his and believe he could provide significant help to the team.
Furthermore, the challenges he’s facing at Milan are reportedly lowering his market value, making him an even more affordable target for the Catalan club.
