The 26-year-old is a reliable performer and could add a new dimension to Arsenal&#8217;s attack. His explosive speed and talent will help Arsenal going forward. He will create chances for his teammates and also help find the back of the goal. Leo has scored 10 goals this season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">According to reports from Spain, Arsenal are preparing an offer of 80 million euros for the player, and if such an offer is made, Milan will seriously consider selling him. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.<\/p>\n<p>We therefore give Leo&#8217;s potential deal with Arsenal a transfer suitability rating of 18\/25, deciding that this is suitable for him.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Rafael Leo<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Total score: 18\/25<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Transfer fee<\/td>\n<td>**<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>performance<\/td>\n<td>****<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>performance<\/td>\n<td>**<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>career phase<\/td>\n<td>*****<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>The need for squads<\/td>\n<td>*****<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Learn more about what the categories mean and how they are scored.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Will_Leo_replace_Martinelli\"><\/span>Will Leo replace Martinelli?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">It appears that the Portugal international&#8217;s arrival could depend on Gabriel Martinelli&#8217;s departure. The Brazilian player has been inconsistent and there is a possibility of him leaving the club. Arsenal are ready to upgrade him and it remains to be seen how the situation will develop.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Meanwhile, there is internal tension over the Portuguese attacker&#8217;s future, with Milan likely to sign him if a firm offer is made. He has the physical and technical attributes to thrive in the Premier League and could be an asset for Arsenal. Now is the right time for him to take on a new challenge and a move to the Premier League would be ideal. He proved his quality in France and Italy. He will now aim to make an impact on English football.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arsenal players gather together before the match against Bayer Leverkusen (Photo by Pau Barrena\/Getty Images) Arsenal are interested in signing Milan attacker Rafael Leao at the end of the season.
