Summer Mercato 2022

Barcelona have opened talks with agent Jorge Mendes over the possibility of signing Rafael Leao.

According to il Corriere dello Sport, Milan want to try and secure Leao’s long term future through the extension of his contract with a pay rise, but there is interest from abroad as Barcelona are in talks with Mendes.

I've also heard that Bayern are looking to sign Leao. Figures in the 80m region.

The likes of Barcelona will probably offer him 8-10M a year. If it's even remotely true that they are interested and are talking to Mendes, then sell this summer. It has to be either a renewal or a sale by the end of July. Hope management puts their foot down.

According to the journalist Rudy Galetti, Kessie has accepted a contract offer from Barcelona worth €6m plus bonuses. It isn’t far away from Milan’s offer, it should be noted, but the main difference is the commission of the agent.

Yep. sell while he's worth something., Losing Leao for free would be an epic failure by club management

amazing what a few mill to the right person can achieve

I guess if Leao doesn't sign this summer then he is for sure out this window. Curious to see what happens then.

Crazy about Kessie. I'm suprised he would want to go to Barca. Their style of play under Xavi is not fitting as much for him. I'm not sure technically he is good enough to do well. He strikes me as someone who would do well in the EPL. Oh well.

Kessie would go play for your sunday league team if you pay him enough lol. I agree, Barca is a supremely technical team by nature and have very rarely fielded players who can't dribble and pass. Kessie is tailor made for the premier league but I guess he didn't get the offer he wanted from there either. Oh well, we moving on to bigger and better things

The only thing I don't understand is if it's only 6m per year. I thought Spurs is offering more than that for him.

I wonder if it is because the Spurs didn't want to pay for his agent's commission. Kessie is a nice player but he is far from top 10 player at his position in the world and most teams wouldnt want to pay out the ass just to sign him.

Whole Chelsea squad up for grab
