Cristiano Ronaldo Teammate Wants To Join Barcelona

Rafael Leao of AC Milan is becoming more and more of a target for Barcelona, as the Blaugrana has already started talking about possible suitors.

Fascinatingly, the talented winger is keen to join La Liga, according to Jose Alvarez Haya.

Barcelona thinks they can handle the financial strain despite the signing’s exorbitant cost. In the event that the trade falls through, the team will pursue Federico Chiesa as a backup.

Given that Leao or Chiesa are anticipated to join the Blaugrana this month, it appears that Barca is committed to acquiring one of these two gifted strikers.

The idea of introducing Leao to Barcelona has grown in popularity lately. Even if the operation is clearly complicated, Barca has a big edge since Jorge Mendes is one of the most powerful agents in sport.

There are, nonetheless, formidable obstacles to overcome. Leao’s market worth is projected to be between €90 million and €100 million and his current contract with AC Milan is set to expire in 2028.

Barcelona is simply unable to pay Milan’s staggering €175 million asking price for the Portuguese international, which further complicates matters.

Leao’s ambition to play for Barcelona gives the Catalan team some clout in spite of these challenges. They are now developing plans to enable this move, which looks unfeasible.
