Bayern Munich Reportedly Offer €75m Plus Player for Rafael Leao

According to reports, Bayern Munich are intensifying efforts to persuade AC Milan to sell Rafael Leao, preparing an offer that includes €75 million in cash along with either Leon Goretzka or Kingsley Coman.

Speculation has been circulating in recent days that the Bundesliga champions have made the Portuguese forward a primary target.

Footmercato now indicates that Bayern is detailing potential offers designed to be attractive to Milan.

The proposed deal reportedly involves a cash sum of €75 million and a player swap, giving Milan the choice between former Juventus player Coman and midfielder Goretzka.

However, this offer is unlikely to convince the Rossoneri, given that Rafael Leao`s contract includes a substantial release clause of €175 million.

Leao`s contract is valid until June 2028, and unlike teammates Mike Maignan and Theo Hernandez, Milan management reportedly sees his future firmly at the club.

New coach Max Allegri is said to be an admirer of Leao and intends to keep him, potentially utilizing him in a different tactical setup to revitalize his form.

While some German sources claimed Leao requested to leave Milan following their failure to qualify for European competition, Italian reports have found little evidence to support this.
