In the latest development regarding the renewal of Rafael Leao's contract with AC Milan, the Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport has reported in this morning's print edition that although the Rossoneri's confidence in securing the promising forward's signature has been boosted by his unwavering desire to remain with the club, a formidable obstacle stands in the way in the form of compensation owed to Sporting Lisbon.
This hurdle has proven to be the most significant and pressing concern, ultimately impeding any further progress on the matter.
Rafael Leao's contract has reportedly said no to Real Madrid and Chelsea. He wants to remain at Milanello. His contract with the club expires in June 2024. The 23-year-old Portuguese left-winger has 13 goals and 12 assists after 41 appearances across all competitions with AC Milan this season.
