In recent hours, several reports have come from Germany about strong interest from Bayern Munich in Rafael Leao. But for now, no one has come forward to Milan: as reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport this morning, in fact, no offers have arrived from the German club so far, nor have there been any phone calls to express concrete interest in the Portuguese forward.
The idea of the Rossoneri club is, in any case, to restart from Leao: both sporting director Igli Tare and coach Massimiliano Allegri have placed him at the center of the new Milan. In particular, the coach from Livorno wants to make him the technical leader of the team and is convinced he can help him make the mental leap necessary to allow him to have more consistent impact on the field.
Rafael Leao ends up attracting the spotlight in every transfer window. It’s inevitable that this happens again this year, at the end of a failed season for Milan and with the beginning of a new cycle ahead. The arrival of Igli Tare and Massimiliano Allegri marks a new chapter in the Rossoneri’s history which, at least on paper, is clearly a break from what has been seen in the past two years. At the heart of this new project, there is room for Rafael Leao.
That is the intention: Leao is the player with the most talent and potential, he is number 10 and the highest paid in the squad. The feeling is that his explosion and definitive consecration have not yet arrived, and Allegri knows this. The coach from Livorno had spoken very highly of the Portuguese a couple of years ago in an interview and had praised him for his unique qualities. Now he wants to keep him at the center of his new Rossoneri era. It’s not just about Max Allegri’s technical appreciation: Igli Tare has also given the player broad reassurances about how important he is for Milan. This aspect was immediate and fundamental, with the Milan sporting director providing the expected answers, answers that will certainly be an important motivation for Leao for the 2025–26 season, as pointed out by Milannews.it.
