With the transfer window still open, the Catalans are considering AC Milan winger Rafael Le\u00e3o as an option.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">According to Mundo Deportivo, the board, led by Deco, is focusing on the 25-year-old Portuguese player as a viable option for Hansi Flick\u2019s squad. Although it might not be an easy signing, the club believes they can pull it off.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">However, the signing of the Portuguese star could be tricky due to his young age and his status as a key player for the Italian side. On the other hand, his agent, Jorge Mendes, might see a move to a European powerhouse like Barcelona as a good opportunity, especially since Le\u00e3o hasn\u2019t fully unlocked his potential at Milan.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Bar\u00e7a is aware that Le\u00e3o\u2019s price tag could be around \u20ac90 million ($98.1 million), making it a challenging deal, but they also know they have a bit over \u20ac58 million set aside, originally intended for Williams\u2019 release clause. The rest of the transfer fee for the Portuguese player would have to be negotiated with Milan\u2019s management to reach a mutual agreement.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Additionally, with the potential departures of Lenglet, G\u00fcndogan, and Vitor Roque, the funds available for a new signing would increase, making it easier for Deco to strike a deal. However, Barcelona isn\u2019t solely focused on Le\u00e3o; they\u2019re also considering bringing in another, more affordable signing to strengthen the squad.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sudan Events &#8211; Agencies\u00a0 After securing the signing of Dani Olmo and failing to bring in Nico Williams from Athletic and Luis D\u00edaz from Liverpool, Barcelona is still chasing a quality addition to their squad.
