Despite appearing to emerge as a star for Massimiliano Allegri, Rafael Leão’s future at AC Milan is full of uncertainty. In light of this, the Portuguese has reportedly been offered to Barcelona in a €50 million move ahead of the summer of 2026. Despite his unpromising start to the season, Rafael Leão has managed to earn a spot in coach Massimiliano Allegri’s rotation. Nevertheless, the Portuguese’s future at AC Milan is not entirely certain, as his inconsistent performances open the door to a possible departure. In light of this, the 26-year-old winger has reportedly been offered to Hansi Flick’s Barcelona in a $58 million(around €50 million) move in the summer of 2026. According to Corriere dello Sport, the Rossoneri are open to listening to offers for Rafael Leao. However, the Portuguese would only leave for an offer exceeding $58 million. Although he has a $210 million (around €180 million) release clause, they believe the 26-year-old star has already completed a cycle with the team, making this one of the last opportunities to secure a good transfer fee for his rights, as his contract expires in 2028. Throughout his career, Leao has been linked with Barcelona, as his agent Jorge Mendes already attempted this move in previous seasons. Given his potential departure from AC Milan, the Blaugrana are closely monitoring a possible move for Rafael, staying in contact with his agent. However, they have not decided to make a move for his signing, waiting until the summer of 2026, reports Diario Sport. Despite Rafael Leao being a target for the Blaugrana for several seasons, they are not entirely convinced about his signing. The Portuguese has not managed to deliver consistent performances at AC Milan, alternating strong displays with notable dips in form. Additionally, Hansi Flick demands defensive commitment from his wingers, something the 26-year-old winger does not particularly excel at, raising serious doubts. Rafael Leao of AC Milan looks on. Report: Barcelona have three top priorities at left wing ahead of Leao Ahead of the 2026–27 season, Barcelona remain attentive to strengthening the left wing, as Raphinha has been dealing with quite a few physical issues. Given this, the possible departure of Rafael Leão from AC Milan emerges as a strong possibility. Nevertheless, the Blaugrana reportedly maintain three priorities to reinforce this position ahead of the Portuguese. According to Diario Sport, the Blaugranas are keeping a close eye on the possible continuity of Marcus Rashford. After already fitting in with Hansi Flick, they are evaluating his performances in the final stretch of the season to decide whether to pay the €30 million buy clause. In addition, he is willing to take a salary reduction, opening the door to his permanent stay. In case that he fails to convince at Barcelona, they have decided to bet on young talent. In this context, the development of Abde Ezzalzouli and Jan Virgili is reportedly being monitored. As academy players, they would have a smooth adaptation to Flick, which is seen as a differential factor. Additionally, the Blaugranas hold 20% of Abde’s future sale and 40% of Virgili’s future sale.

Liverpool’s defensive rebuild this summer is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about stories heading into the transfer window — and the name at the centre of it all is Chelsea’s Josh Acheampong. With Virgil van Dijk turning 35 in July, Ibrahima Konaté out of contract, and Joe Gomez continuing to struggle with injuries, Arne Slot’s side are in genuine need of defensive reinforcements. And according to reports, Acheampong is firmly in their sights. The Hybrid Defender Everyone Wants At just 19 years old, Acheampong has quickly emerged as one of the most intriguing young prospects ahead of the summer 2026 transfer window — a new breed of “hybrid” defender equally comfortable at right-back or centre-back. Liverpool aren’t alone in their admiration either. Real Madrid, Newcastle United, and Borussia Dortmund are also among the clubs vying for his signature. Chelsea’s Stance Is Clear — For Now Here’s the snag. Transfer journalist Pete O’Rourke has dismissed speculation that Chelsea could sell Acheampong to Liverpool, stating the club has “no interest in sanctioning a sale” and simply does not want to lose him. However, a lack of regular game time in 2026 has fuelled reports that Acheampong could push for [...] The post Liverpool lining up move for Josh Acheampong appeared first on Football Extras.

An absolute snooze-fest against Salford won't stop us! Never fear, the Blue Moon Podcast is here to try and find the interesting bits of a dull game... Or, we might actually focus more on the other bits of news from the week. David Mooney is joined by City fan Ciaran Murray and, from The Times, Paul Hirst to discuss everything from the last seven days. In the news is James Trafford – he's given a couple of interviews about his situation at the club and the reaction has been very polarised... Should he have stayed quiet now that the transfer window is shut or did he actually say nothing that was a problem, given his lack of game time since he arrived back from Burnley? On top of that, it's time for Newcastle this weekend... as the title-race gets more interesting, following Arsenal's draw at Wolves. We'll get the views of Sam Dalling from the Newcastle podcast True Faith. And, on top of that, as James Milner looks likely to be the outright record-holder for players with the most Premier League appearances, we look at the four players of the top five appearance-makers who have pulled on the City shirt. ========== To get more podcasts or to listen without the ads, join our Patreon.
