Barcelona is supposed to consider a movement for a new attacker this summer, but signing one of their goals can be difficult because other clubs seemed to go for them in recent weeks.
Barcelona Sporting Director Deco is assumed to tackle the left -wing options of the first team in the summer transfer window. Raphinha has been there in sensational form this season, but without clear backup there is room for a new addition to be introduced before the start of the following season.
Luis Diaz, who is the preferred option of Deco, seems to stay in Liverpool, which means that other names must be considered. And one of them would be the favorite of Joan Laporta, president of Barcelona.
That player is Rafael Leao, and although he would be a very good addition to the Barcelona team, it is far from certain that the Portugal International will make the switch to Catalonia -that is because Chelsea and Arsenal are also in the race, and according to Caughter -offs there are already going on with the first.
Chelsea is currently ahead, but Arsenal is watching Leao as an alternative to Nico Williams from Athletic Club, who is their favorite target for the left wing. Barcelona will be in a similar boat as their fellow-beaten Champions League semi-finalists, and it is unclear when they can decide on a possible summer chase.
Milan is supposed to be open to the sale of LEAO for a fee in the region of € 75 million, which is willing to pay Chelsea. On the other hand, Barcelona will have to make a considerable turnover before they can pay that price, given their well -documented financial problems.
