AC Milan's top winger Rafael Leão expressed his thoughts on Saudi Arabian clubs' "oil money" offensive.

Portugal international, 24-year-old striker Leão is one of the most rising players in Europe recently. Despite his young age, he has already dominated the Serie A stage. He led AC Milan to victory in the 2021-2022 season. He became the Serie A MVP at the age of 22. He has become the hottest winger with 26 goals and 20 assists in 69 games in the past two seasons. He has already scored three goals and two assists in five games since the opening of this season.

Saudi Arabia, which spent a lot of money this summer to sweep away its stars, could not let Leang pass. Most of them were considered to be a league where "out of date" stars over the age of 30, but Leang, who has not even reached his prime, also showed his greed. In particular, if AC Milan receives an astronomical offer that cannot be rejected, it is expected that it will be able to set up a negotiation table regarding Leang's transfer.

But Leanne herself is not interested at all. To be precise, money doesn't mean much at the moment. Leang told "GQ" that "the Saudi League's proposal? For me, the European Champions League is worth more than 10 million euros a year, he said. "I have no intention of going to Saudi Arabia yet. I'm just focusing on doing a great job with AC Milan. That's why I signed a new contract a few months ago," he said.

Leanne signed an extension with AC Milan in June. He can play in AC Milan uniforms until the summer of 2028.
