While Milan has reportedly agreed to his large salary demands, they may want to avoid paying the player’s other financial demands. Leao owes Sporting CP around €19 million and is looking for Milan’s assistance.

Chelsea is said to have given Leao assurances about a large salary and other demands. The Blues have been interested in the Serie A star since last summer, so they may pursue him again in the coming window.
