Rafael Leao is under contract with AC Milan until the summer of 2024 and the Italian champions want to extend his deal with an attractive salary and another big sacrifice.
Milan wants to pay the fine Rafael Leao received from Sporting Lisbon.
In 2018, Rafael Leao moved from Sporting Lisbon to Lille after a rather dangerous episode in the Portuguese camp.
The players were attacked by fans at the meeting, and then the Lusitanian made the decision to leave the group from the capital of Portugal.
Lisbon “Sporting” complained to the TAS about Leao’s departure to “Lille”, and now the footballer owes them at least 19 million euros.
AC Milan paid €35 million to bring him to the San Siro and are now willing to do even more to keep him.
According to journalist Matteo Moretto, Rafael Leao would reach an agreement in principle with the management of the Milan club on the extension of the contract, becoming one of the most highly paid players of the team.
Rafael Leao would earn €7.5 million a year at Milan, compared to the €1.5 he currently earns.
