Sofia, Italy – Na serious matter wey dey happen for AC Milan as their star player, Rafael Leao, don make am clear say e wan comot for the club. Dis 25-year-old guy dey contract till 2028, but e no gree leave Milan vibes; e dey push for transfer this summer.
Last season, Leao shine well as e score eight goals and provide ten assists, but e no fit carry Milan enter European competition for next season. Na why him name dey circulate up and down for June as pundits dey speculate which players go fit transfer dis summer. E be like Arsenal sef dey ginger to sign am, as Leao’s camp don report say the Emirates Stadium chiefs don get interest in am (who no go wan grab hot player like Leao?).
Back in 2023, Leao don talk say, “Every player wan play for Premier League because e dey very competitive.” Na true talk be dat, as e mention say e sure say di league dey enjoy better football vibes and worldwide audience. Now, di latest gist don drop say Leao don tell Milan say e no wan continue for dem after six years – wahala don dey brew!
According to report from Sky Sports Germany, Milan no wan sell Leao, but dem don accept say di €175m (£147m) release clause no go fit met by any club (dem ready to chop table if the right offer land). Dem talk say only ‘high’ offer go fit push dem to talk, with Bayern Munich dey lead di race. Arsenal need to step up if dem wan compete.
Even though Bayern don show small interest, some French publication dey claim say dem go first attempt to kibosh Leao for €75m (£63m). Dis one fit make Arsenal waka fast if dem wan snatch him before Bayern fit table serious offer.
As if dat one no be enough, Arsenal dey face pressure to deliver silverware for next season, with Mikel Arteta under spotlight to make solid moves. Wetin dem need fit dey mix of strengthening di first team and improve di squad depth. Arteta no use him full squad well these past three years, but time don reach for Berta to make am happen now.
Matches against Milan, Tottenham, and Newcastle dey line up, and everybody dey look for who go fit enter Arteta best squad. Dem dey check di frontline wey dey need maturity and consistency, but wetin e go take to fit help Leao settle down? That na di million-dollar question.
For Arsenal, dem need better depth for attack, with Trossard and Ethan Nwaneri fit help but e no dey enough. E don clear say dem star boy, Bukayo Saka, dey need support as well. Dis summer na chance to improve their options and blend with fresh talent.
If Leao end up joining Arsenal, e go add serious firepower to di team, but dem fit dey miss di high asking price from Milan. E go be interesting to watch as dis summer transfer window dey unfold, but for now, all eyes go dey on Leao and wetin e go decide to do!
