Milan are open to selling Leão. He is on the Barcelona president's “dream” list
Rafael Leão’s situation at AC Milan continues to worsen, as the Portuguese star is set to be benched again in the Rossoneri’s upcoming match against Monza.
Given the current circumstances, Milan is seriously considering the option of selling Leão in January.
Details: According to Relevo, Milan does not view Leão as untouchable. The club is open to selling him if a suitable offer arrives—whether from Barcelona or any other club interested in the Portuguese star.

It’s reported that Barcelona president Joan Laporta has a list of “dream targets” he wants to bring to the Catalan giants, and Leão is considered a prime option for the left-wing position.
Barcelona might evaluate the possibility of signing a left-winger in 2025, even with Raphinha’s strong form this season. Adding Leão would be an impressive move, although the club would likely need to gather significant funds to meet his asking price.
Reminder: Over the last two matches, Leão has played just 29 minutes. Reports indicate a possible conflict between Leão and Paulo Fonseca, with the coach reportedly dissatisfied with the winger and lacking trust in him.
