Galatasaray resumes talks with Milan for Rafael Leao after price drop
Summary

Galatasaray is engaged in renewed negotiations with AC Milan for Rafael Leao, following a price adjustment. The initial asking price of €50 million has reportedly decreased, encouraging discussions after previous parties, including Benfica and Fenerbahce, failed to meet Milan's demands. Despite Galatasaray's earlier bid for Gabriel Martinelli being rejected, interest in Leao appears to have reignited as his contract with Milan runs until June 2028 with no intention of renewal. The outcome of these discussions remains uncertain as no formal offer has been made.
