Rafael Leao has had a disagreement with AC Milan's coach Paulo Fonseca, which has sparked speculation about his future at the club. Leao has often been left out of the starting lineup, and his relationship with Fonseca is reportedly tense. Although he signed a new contract last year that includes a €175 million release clause, Chelsea is rumored to have a strong interest in him. If Leao continues to be overlooked by the coach, Milan might not demand such a high fee, potentially opening the door for interested parties like Chelsea.

Rafael Leao has been frequently associated with Chelsea. His form in recent years has made him a sought-after commodity on the market. Milan has ensured to price any potential suitors out of a move by handing him a €175 million release clause. Transfer talks have gone quiet in recent weeks and months, but if he continues to perform, speculation will inevitably reappear.

Chelsea has been following Leao for some time and is showing interest.
