Paolo Maldini gave a little hint before Napoli. “Confidence in Leao’s renewal is growing, we are on the same path”. Translated: there is optimism. Maybe the soap opera is over. But how is the situation? When will the parties meet to talk again? How much does the Portuguese ask? And how much does the compensation affect Sporting?
Appointment

First piece of news: Leao and the top Rossoneri could meet after April 18, the date of the return of the Champions League. Despite Maldini’s words, however, there are no significant steps forward, even if the main issue remains the payment to Sporting Lisbon. The famous fine taken for having terminated the contract with the Portuguese after the attack by the fans in 2018. Second point: Milan don’t want to pay the Portuguese. In recent days, Record has revealed that Lille will take charge of the 20.3 million. Leao also “appreciated” the news by liking it on Twitter.
The figures
—
The Portuguese’s entourage is asking for a figure of around 7/7.5 million euros, while Milan went up to 6.5. An agreement around seven is possible, even if the Sporting issue has a lot of impact on the progress of the deal. The contract expires in 2024, the solution of a bridge renewal cannot be excluded, as well as Rafael’s mood changes and Mendes’ willingness, who welcomes the possibility of leaving on a free transfer. Finally there is the will: Leao loves Milan, he is fine and is the idol of the fans. After two months like this, he finally returned to his level, knocking Napoli over to Maradona. The clues all lean in favor of Portuguese. Who knows how he will end up.
