Liverpool have been linked with a move to sign AC Milan forward Rafael Leao this summer, and Fabrizio Romano has shared what he's hearing on the situation, writing in his exclusive GIVEMESPORT newsletter.
Leao has developed into one of the best wingers in world football over recent years, flourishing in Serie A for the Italian club. If the Portuguese international becomes available in the summer transfer window, then a host of clubs will likely be in the race to secure his signature.
Liverpool could be looking to bring in a new forward over the next few months, but it may depend on who they offload. The Reds have plenty of options who can play in the same position as Leao, but there's no guarantee they all remain at the club beyond the end of the summer transfer window.

Reports in Italy recently claimed that Liverpool have initiated contact for a move to sign AC Milan forward Leao this summer. Al-Hilal, Al Ittihad, Al Nassr, and Bayern Munich are also said to be interested, and Milan could be willing to negotiate if an offer of £110m arrives at the table.
Adding a new left winger to Slot's squad might not be an immediate priority for Liverpool, but, as mentioned, a move could accelerate if they decide to offload one of their current options. GIVEMESPORT sources have confirmed that Luis Diaz is open to leaving during the summer transfer window, with Saudi Arabian outfit Al-Nassr prepared to make a big-money offer to secure his signature. The Reds could demand in the region of £72m to allow him to head through the exit door.
