Chelsea and Arsenal Eye New Additions as European Clubs Prepare for Major Moves

AC Milan are reportedly open to offers for star winger Rafael Leão, with growing interest from Arsenal, Chelsea, Bayern Munich, and clubs in the Saudi Pro League.

According to reports from Calciomercato, while no formal bids have been submitted yet, Milan are prepared to entertain offers if the right valuation is met.

Leão, who has been a key figure in Milan’s attacking setup, remains a player of significant market value. However, the club does not currently view him as “untouchable,” especially amid interest from top European clubs looking to add pace and creativity to their forward lines.

Arsenal and Chelsea are both closely monitoring the situation. The Gunners are targeting attacking reinforcements as they aim to mount a stronger title challenge next season, while Chelsea’s rebuild under Enzo Maresca has them linked with several high-profile wide players.

Elsewhere, Nico Williams has reportedly requested that Athletic Club relax their stance regarding a potential transfer to Barcelona, as the Catalan giants aim to strengthen their wing options.

In confirmed moves, Florian Wirtz has completed a £100 million transfer to Liverpool from Bayer Leverkusen, signing a five-year contract. Meanwhile, Thomas Partey is expected to leave Arsenal on a free transfer after contract talks broke down.

As the summer transfer window gathers pace, clubs across Europe are maneuvering to reshape their squads, with more high-profile movement expected in the coming weeks.
