Chelsea would have pay massive money to prise Rafael Leao away from AC Milan.

La Gazzetta Dello Sport says Milan will not sell Leao for less €150m due to clauses from his former clubs.

Leao still owes £13.85m (€16.5m) to Sporting Lisbon following the unilateral termination of his contract.

In addition, Lille will receive 15 per cent of any future sale involving Leao, which was agreed as part of the deal that saw him join Milan in 2019.

Therefore, Chelsea have been informed that any deal for Leao, who can play as a striker or a winger, is set to be a very expensive one.

Leao's release clause of £126.1million (€150million) expired in July but Chelsea would still have to pay a similar fee in order to sign him.
