Rafael Leao is likely to leave AC Milan at the end of this season, with intermediaries making offers to multiple Premier League clubs.
TEAMtalk reports that Manchester United have been approached regarding a possible move for the 26-year-old attacker.
The Italian club could sanction his departure with a fee of £43 million, and Manchester United certainly have the financial wherewithal to get a deal done. They could add more depth to their attacking unit and the 26-year-old is a versatile attacker who could be very useful.
He can operate both broadly and centrally. He will add goals and creativity to the team. The opportunity to play in the Premier League could also be interesting for the Portugal international.
Meanwhile, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool have also been approached about a possible move. They have been tracking the player for quite some time, but it remains to be seen whether he will be ready to move in the summer.
The £43m attacker is at the peak of his career and now could be the perfect time to take on a new challenge. He has the physical and technical attributes to suit English football and could be an asset in the right team.
Manchester United recently invested in Brian Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha. Leo may struggle to earn regular minutes at Old Trafford.
He could replace Noni Madueke at Arsenal. The former Chelsea player has not been able to provide a dominant performance since joining Arsenal, and competition for his position could become even more intense.
Chelsea and Liverpool also need depth in the wide areas. Players like Jamie Gittens and Kodi Gakpo will need to be upgraded.
Leo is 10 goals 3 assists He could be a useful option in the final third this season.
