Sorry Mudryk and Sterling, as ‘best winger in the world’ is now open to join Chelsea
AC Milan winger, Rafael Leao is now ready to move to another club and league, after spending the last five years with Milan.
This is according to a new report from Foot Mercato, who claims that Leao believes he has reached the end of his cycle with his current employers, and wants to now move to either the Premier League or the La Liga.
If the 24-year-old does decide to move to England next, Chelsea may be tempted to make a swoop for him, having previously been linked with an interest in the Portugal International some years ago.
If this happens, it might also spell danger for Raheem Sterling and Mykhailo Mudryk, who have struggled to live up to their reputations over the past two seasons. This is especially true for the Ukrainian, who has now been relegated to being a substitute player as a result of his inconsistency.
Selling one of the two players would surely help Chelsea free up the funds to sign Leao, who many regard as the best 1v1 winger in the world right now, especially because of his dribbling and quick feet.
Rafael Leao has made 28 appearances for Milan this season, scoring six goals, and picking up nine assists.
