Barcelona have been handed a surprising boost in their long-standing pursuit of Rafael Leao, with the AC Milan star reportedly offered to the Catalan giants. After a breakdown in his relationship with the Rossoneri management, the Portuguese international could be available for a significantly lower fee than previously expected.
Massimiliano Allegri has admitted AC Milan are no longer in the race for the Serie A title following a damaging 1-0 loss to Napoli. The Italian manager confirmed the Rossoneri have shifted their entire focus towards securing Champions League qualification, especially after resting key players like Christian Pulisic and Rafael Leao backfired at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
Gennaro Gattuso is expected to step down as Italy head coach following the nation's catastrophic failure to qualify for the 2026 World Cup. The Azzurri suffered a heartbreaking playoff defeat to Bosnia and Herzegovina, marking the third consecutive time the four-time world champions will be absent from the global stage.
