In a decisive statement, AC Milan’s CEO, Giorgio Furlani, has firmly shut down any speculation linking star forward Rafa Leão with a move to Barcelona this summer. Furlani made it clear that Leão is staying at Milan, leaving no room for doubt about the club’s intentions to keep their prized asset.
Firm Rejection of Barcelona Links
Rumors of Rafa Leão being targeted by Barcelona have been circulating, but Furlani was quick to dismiss these reports. “Rafa Leão will **NOT** leave AC Milan this summer,” Furlani stated unequivocally. When asked specifically about a potential move to Barcelona, he replied, “No chance. No way, he’s staying at the club and I can guarantee he’s not leaving, 100%.”
Confidence in Leão’s Commitment
Furlani also addressed any concerns about Leão’s own desires, asserting that the player is fully committed to AC Milan. “If Rafa Leão asks to leave and to join Barça? He’s not gonna ask to leave the club, I can guarantee to you,” Furlani assured fans, reinforcing the idea that Leão is content at Milan and has no intention of seeking a transfer.
Rafa Leão’s Future at AC Milan
Giorgio Furlani’s statements leave no room for misinterpretation—Rafa Leão is staying at AC Milan. The club’s firm stance and Leão’s apparent commitment suggest that the forward will continue to play a central role in Milan’s plans for the upcoming season. For Barcelona, any hopes of securing Leão’s signature have been categorically dashed, as Milan makes it clear that their star man is off-limits.
