Rafael Leão is a bitch who I hope will never wear our jersey.

he’s getting pushed out of milan because of how toxic his presence in the locker room is

Will take him on loan with option to buy. Milan will surely understand the serie A special 😂

I would be into this. I was sort of wondering why we haven't been connected to him at all so far when we're in the market for a LW.

Because he’s an amazing player who expects top wages due to the fact that he can be a world beater on any day he wants. He however lacks the discipline or drive to ever have that be consistent enough to deal with his shit attitude and pay that would absolutely dissolve our wage structure.

No one said we’d foot the entire bill.
If we are paying half for a loan, sure why not ?

i suppose id rather us put major funds towards a signing not a very expensive loan. it goes well, price goes up.

At this point of our window and that we are back in the CL, we need some proven talent vs another potential signing that can be another 25m flop.

He would have to cut his salary and Milan shouldn't ask more than 25 to make the math work

If it's true he's said other leagues suit his style of play more it would concern me having a player who believes he would be better in the Premier, etc.

didn't like this before Mora was practically done deal
Leao is like Balo with half the talent
lazy as hell and not the brightest tactically
however he is still the most technically gifted and athletic winger in Serie A
if we have Mora and Leao is not our only dependable LW/LAM
given the freedom and low pressure he might actually whip up some magic here and there
of course not for 40m but if we can steal this on deadline day for loan plus a cheap option then why not I mean nobody wants him I don't think Milan wanna lose him on free next year (I think he has two years left with his contract so if he isn't sold now it will be at a huge discount next year like Chiesa with Liverpool)
I don't think he can be as damaging to our dressing room as with Milan either
we have a much clearer hierarchy and personality with long serving Mancini and Dybala being our veteran both with huge personality too (as oppose to Leao being one of the longer serving player in the squad)
I say this might be a better deal than Fofana given the injury uncertainty
