Each system: Barcelona learns that Milan is willing to sell Leo on a floating basis, and regards it as the third candidate target

According to the Daily Sports Daily, Barcelona regards Leo as the third target of the winger's signings and has learned that Milan is willing to sell the Portuguese winger for 70 million euros + floating bonus.

Barcelona senior executives are determined to strengthen the winger position this summer. After Nico Williams' transfer failed due to an unexpected contract renewal of Athletic Bilbao, the club has restarted negotiations between Louis Dias and Rashford. Another popular target is Leo in Milan, and Barcelona is already aware of the trading conditions but is less likely to leave Italy.

Leo was noticed by Barcelona last summer, and recently the two sides contacted Jorge Mendes (Mendes is not Leo's agent but has influence on him and has a good relationship with Milan). The termination fee in Leo's contract is 150 million euros, but Milan is willing to accept a fixed transfer fee + floating clause plan of about 70 million euros.

Leo may be the closest player to Nico Williams in technical features, but the transfer fee may be higher than Louis Dias, especially far higher than Rashford. The advantage is that it still has age advantages and room for growth. Leo's performance this season has fluctuated and has friction with multiple coaches in Milan. He is willing to join Barcelona, ​​but it is not currently the priority target for the Barcelona sports department to sign, unless other transfers are blocked.

Bayern tried to negotiate on Leo this summer but eventually withdrew, although Milan had made it clear at the time that he was willing to negotiate a transfer. Barcelona also tried before closing the window last August, but was rejected because Milan could not find a replacement at the time.
