Arsenal are interested in signing the Portuguese international attacker Rafael Leao from AC Milan at the end of the season.
According to French publication Footmercato, they have definite interest in the 25-year-old attacker, and Arsenal’s sporting Director, Andrea Berta, has called the player personally ten days ago.
It will be interesting to see if Arsenal follow up on their interest with an official offer to sign the player. The 25-year-old is one of the best attackers in Italian football, and he has proven himself in European competitions as well. Leao has 25 goal contributions this season.
Arsenal need Rafael Leao
Leao could prove to be a useful acquisition for Arsenal, who are looking to add more quality and depth on the flanks. He has been linked with Chelsea as well.
Gabriel Martinelli has had an underwhelming season, and Arsenal need more options at their disposal. The Portuguese international is capable of operating as a left-sided winger as well as a centre forward. His versatility will be an added bonus for Arsenal if they can get the deal done.
Leao would be a superb addition
The attacker has been hailed as a “great player” by Brazilian legend Ronaldinho. There is no doubt that he has the physical and technical attributes to succeed in the Premier League, and he could be a key player for Arsenal. It remains to be seen whether the London club can negotiate a reasonable deal for him.
The report from the French publication claims that Leao has had a mixed campaign with the Italian outfit, and the two parties could look to go their separate ways in the summer.
It will be interesting to see how the situation unfolds over the next few weeks. Arsenal must improve their attacking unit if they are serious about winning the league title next season. A quality wide player and a reliable centre forward should be their priority.
I am of the opinion that good players make good teams while too much super stars do not because everyone of them will make his name to be heard more than the others so I will like Arsenal to go for the very best footballers not superstars like the days of Thierry Henry, Dennis Berkampe, Patrick Viera Robert Pires.Kanu Nwankwo Freddie Lumberg Wiltord and many of them are all great players no rubbing shoulders everybody are excelling so let Arsenal bring their eyes down they will make good and better signing business footballers that are hungry of trophies they’re around.
this season I don’t t know from where did this journalist brought the news that leao has 25 goals first of all .and for me yes who wants leao Milan must sell him cause he is like a ballerina doll in the pitch
