FC Barcelona wants to get a left winger who is very good and can make a difference. Rafael Leao is someone the Catalans want, but it could cost more than 100 million euros to sign him, which is money the clubs don’t have right now.

FC Barcelona has made it clear that they want to sign an extreme player this summer, along with a mid-level player who can dribble and score goals that can make a difference. ‘SPORT’ newspaper says that Rafael Leao, a big star for Milan, is the name that sounds and looks the best right now in the team Barcelonaista. The Portuguese attacker has more present and future value than any other in the world. He is worth 90 million euros and has a 150-million-euro clause that lets him back out of the deal.

In Saint Siro, it’s clear that they don’t want to give up on the left wing, but if they were forced to go out and got a good offer, the “rossoneri” might agree to discuss his sale. Still, that feeling of not being able to talk to anyone if the plan doesn’t go over or at least come close to three figures is almost impossible. It doesn’t make sense for the Milanistas to sell his big “crack” for less than 100 million euros, since the contract was renewed until 2028 and they don’t need to sell something.

Because of this, it seems very hard, if not impossible, for the culés to at least try to make a deal of this size right now with Barcelona the way they are. Barça Studios put in enough money so that LaLiga could be seen as a good way to strengthen by the rule of 1-1. This means that it will be able to spend one euro for every euro that is saved, so there will be money for this kind of investment. To spend more than 100 “kilos” on a star player, you would have to sell someone else first, like Frenkie de Jong, or you could trade this player for a few less important ones, like Raphinha, Christensen, or Jules Koundé.

If Barcelona makes enough money to pay for this very expensive process, that’s when the time to talk to Leao will come. According to reports, the forward could move to the Premier League or La Liga, but Barcelona won’t be able to pay him as much as they could in England or PSG. They want him as a replacement for Kylian Mbappé if they can’t get him. The luso doesn’t seem interested in moving to France, where he has already played at Lille, which would at least help Qatar get rid of its oil problems.

Barça could keep Jorge Mendes so that they could try to make a deal with Rafael, since the well-known agent would want to use his “networks” to help his countryman. After the contract was renewed, both sides moved away. Now, Leao’s agent would be his lawyer, You Dimvula. Making friends with Joan Laporta could help the president of Gestifute reach a deal if he was able to get back into the attacker’s circle of trust. In spite of this, you still have to go through a lot of steps to get here. This is to see if the culés can give.
