"According to Fichajes, Chelsea are front-runners to secure his services, and they are ready to make a strong push in order to get the deal done. They would be willing to pay around 120 million to sign the Portuguese international. The report claims that the amount could convince Milan to sell the player, but the offer would have to arrive at the right time."
"The Blues believe that he could add the speed, power and goals they currently need. He is capable of operating anywhere across the front three, and he could prove to be an excellent long-term investment for Chelsea. It remains to be seen whether they can get the deal across the line. The player has the physicality to thrive in English football, and he could be tempted to join Chelsea full stop."
Chelsea are pursuing Rafael Leao and are prepared to offer around €120 million to AC Milan. Milan may consider selling for that fee, but a mid-season departure is unlikely; the transfer would most likely occur in the summer window. Leao offers speed, power, goal threat and can play across the front three, providing long-term value and physical attributes suited to English football. Chelsea view him as a player who could strengthen their attack as they push to return to elite competition after recent Club World Cup and Europa Conference League successes.
