Galatasaray and Fenerbahce continue to show interest in signing Portuguese star Rafael Leão during the summer transfer window, but the AC Milan winger has not shown any openness to the idea of moving to the Turkish league, preferring to wait for offers from major European leagues.


According to reports, the two Turkish clubs are currently the most serious parties interested in acquiring Leao, while there are no advanced negotiations with other clubs, resulting in a stalemate regarding his departure from Milan so far.


Milan remains open to selling the player if a suitable offer comes in, with reports indicating that the Italian club has set a price range of €60 to €70 million to part ways with their Portuguese star during the summer transfer window.


Rafael Leao continues to prioritize gaining experience in one of the major European leagues, which explains his refusal at this stage to open negotiations with Galatasaray or Fenerbahce, despite strong interest from both Turkish clubs.
