Barcelona have not been offered AC Milan’s £60m forward Rafael Leao

Manchester United, Manchester City and Real Madrid are understood to be monitoring the Portugal international.

United want to sign a new left-winger, while Liverpool are exploring the market for Mohamed Salah’s replacement.

Meanwhile, City are looking to strengthen their squad due to Bernardo Silva’s imminent exit and other potential departures.

Madrid also want to freshen up their squad after a disappointing season, though they have quality options in wide areas, most notably Vinicius Junior.

Primarily a left winger, Leao can operate anywhere across the front line. He has a blistering pace, good footwork and is decisive.

He has tallied 80 goals and 65 assists in 287 appearances, making him one of Milan’s most productive forwards.

However, he offers little defensively and can be inconsistent.

The Rossoneri are open to selling Leao to ‘balance the books and work within financial guidelines’. He could leave for around £60 million.

Interested clubs would want a deal done before the World Cup, preventing them from paying a higher fee should he impress at the tournament.
