Paris Saint-Germain made an offer to Milan for Raphael Leao in the amount of 70 million euros, an offer, according to the newspaper. La Gazzetta dello Sporthas already reached the hands of businessman Jorge Mendes which includes a net annual salary of six million euros per season for the Portuguese striker.

As tempting as it may be, neither the club nor the player is considering accepting the French giant’s proposal at the moment. And that newspaper wrote that Rafael Liao’s priority is to resolve the dispute with Sporting, who demanded in January that a fifth of his salary be frozen. The subject of contention is the decision of the Court of Arbitration for Sport (TAD) that held that there was no just cause for a unilateral termination of the contract, which the player requested after the attack on the academy, in June 2018, after setting a compensation of 16.5 million euros plus benefits in favor of the Lions.

According to the same source, “careful diplomatic work is underway to reach an extrajudicial agreement with Sporting”, in a process in which Lille also participates, which received Rafael Liao after Alvalade’s departure, and which will know developments on April 7, the day when the date of the hearing was set In the Milan court.

Milan is also awaiting the resolution of this process, which intends to renew the contract of Rafael Liao until June 2026 (the current contract expires in 2024). Any decision on the market will depend on the striker’s continuity, and by accepting PSG’s proposal, just under 60 million euros will enter the Italian coffers because Lille will receive 15 per cent of the deal.
