Though whispers of the Portuguese talisman's departure have echoed across Europe for weeks, a new revelation threatens to send shockwaves through the squad, promising profound consequences for the American star. A sudden and unexpected twist in Rafael Leao’s destiny has plunged both him and Christian Pulisic into the heart of Milan’s most captivating summer saga. Though whispers of the Portuguese talisman’s departure have echoed across Europe for weeks, a new revelation threatens to send shockwaves through the squad, promising profound consequences for the American star. For much of the transfer window, Leao appeared destined to leave Milan as interest arrived from Turkiye, while Premier League clubs were also mentioned as possible destinations. At the same time, Pulisic has remained a key figure in the club’s plans under new head coach Ruben Amorim, making the latest developments even more intriguing. Galatasaray has recently intensified its efforts to sign Rafael Leao, opening negotiations with the Italian side and submitting an official bid for the Portugal international. According to Turkish journalist Yagız Sabuncuoglu, the Turkish champion offered around $40 million for a permanent transfer, but the proposal was immediately rejected because Milan continues to value the winger at between $58 million and $69 million. Thus, Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky Italia and MilanNews respond that Milan has no intention of accepting a discounted fee and will only consider a permanent transfer if their valuation is met. The club also rejected previous ideas involving loan deals, making it clear they are only interested in a full sale. Rafael Leao of AC Milan looks on Despite the failed opening offer, Galatasaray is said to be preparing an improved proposal that could approach $46 million, although that still falls short of the Rossoneri’s asking price. Turkish media also claim Leao has shown interest in the move, while other reports suggest his position is becoming increasingly complicated. Leao reportedly changes his stance Just weeks ago, Leao openly admitted he wanted a new challenge after spending seven seasons with Milan. His comments appeared to signal the end of his time at San Siro, especially after missing out on Champions League action. However, recent reports suggest the situation has changed dramatically. La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that the Portuguese forward has begun reconsidering his future after returning for pre-season, feeling welcomed once again by teammates and encouraged by the atmosphere under Ruben Amorim. Rafael Leao of AC Milan during the Serie A match. According to the newspaper, the 27-year-old has realized that leaving is no longer his only option. Instead, he is reportedly open to repairing his relationship with the club and continuing his career in Italy if the right transfer proposal never arrives. Further reinforcing that idea, Pietro Mazzara of MilanNews reported that Leao has informed Milan he wants to stay for now, even though the club remains willing to listen to offers that match its valuation. Why Leao staying could directly affect Christian Pulisic The biggest consequence of Leao remaining at Milan concerns Christian Pulisic’s role under Ruben Amorim. Earlier this summer, reports suggested Amorim viewed Pulisic as his first-choice option in the left-sided attacking midfield role within his preferred 3-4-2-1 formation, with the American expected to operate between the lines rather than as a traditional winger. During his unveiling, Amorim made his admiration for Pulisic perfectly clear. “Pulisic is truly a very talented player. He got injured at the World Cup, we’ll have to understand. But he’s perfect for the way Italian football is… I have clear ideas about how I want to see him play… I want him between the lines… He’s very important for us.” Rafael Leao of AC Milan interacts with Christian Pulisic Those comments fueled speculation that there might be little room for Leao in the new tactical set

Rangers striker Danilo has returned to his native Brazil to join top-flight club Botofago on a year-long loan with what the Ibrox club describe as a conditional obligation to buy. The 27-year-old was out of previous head coach Danny Rohl's plans, spending the second part of last season on loan to Nijmegen, and is now also out of picture under new manager Derek McInnes. Botofago currently sit ninth of the 20 clubs in the 2026 Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A after 19 games.

After failing to qualify to the last World Cup, Italy FA president Giovanni Malago confirmed the talks with Pep Guardiola to turn into the next head coach. The Italy national team has once again failed to qualify for the World Cup, falling to Bosnia and Herzegovina in the UEFA playoffs. Now operating under a revamped executive hierarchy, newly elected Italian Football Federation (FIGC) president Giovanni Malago confirmed that the federation has initiated talks with Pep Guardiola to take over as head coach of the Azzurri. Speaking to the Italian program Vivavoce on June 22, Malago addressed the search for a new manager, acknowledging that financial accommodations might be necessary to secure a premier target, especially following reports of a recent meeting between Italian executives and the former Manchester City boss: “Exceptions have been made that, for example, concern the name that is so present these days: Pep Guardiola.“ Elected as FIGC president on June 22, Malago clarified that while financial flexibility alone won’t guarantee a deal, it marks a significant step in pursuing their top priority. Over the weekend, Sporting Director Paolo Maldini and advisor Leonardo traveled to Barcelona to meet with Guardiola directly, attempting to gauge his interest in leading the four-time world champions back to prominence. Malagò added that despite opening dialogue with Guardiola, the federation remains in contact with alternative candidates. “This is by no means a lack of respect towards other candidates, with whom discussions have already begun, and adding another name would in no way detract from the process. There are also financial and budgetary considerations. In the short to medium term, to say that we’ll have to tighten our belts is an understatement,” Malago noted Pep Guardiola, Manager of Manchester City, looks on during his farewell ceremony. Italian options remain under consideration for 2030 World Cup cycle Guardiola has maintained a relentless pace since launching his managerial career at FC Barcelona in 2008, moving to Bayern Munich before concluding his transformative ten-year run at Manchester City in June 2026. While Italian executives hope to lure the tactical mastermind with a compelling sporting vision toward the 2030 World Cup, there remains a strong possibility he chooses to take a sabbatical before accepting his next project. Should a deal for Guardiola fall through, former Azzurri boss Roberto Mancini, who led Italy to the Euro 2020 crown, and Andrea Pirlo remain prominent domestic contenders. “If we are evaluating a specific profile, those names certainly fit within our criteria,” Malago remarked when asked about alternative Italian candidates. Resistance builds in Italy over hiring a foreign manager If appointed, Guardiola would follow a growing trend of elite managers taking over foreign national teams, echoing Carlo Ancelotti’s move to Brazil and Thomas Tuchel’s appointment with England. However, the prospect of appointing a Spanish manager to lead the national team has met pushback within Italy’s sporting hierarchy. In an interview with Corriere della Sera, Luciano Buonfiglio, president of the Italian National Olympic Committee (CONI) and Malago’s successor at the organization, voiced strong opposition to hiring a non-Italian coach: “I don’t want to offer advice to Giovanni Malago, who has made a very good start as the new president of the Italian Federation. The only thing I ask of him is to appoint an Italian national team coach. The vast majority of Serie A managers are Italian. They are good, professional, and the product of our tradition. Why leave them out?“ Buonfiglio pointed to his previous experience leading the Italian Canoe Kayak Federation (FICK), where he appointed a German head coach to mixed results. “He was talented, but he never truly made an effort to understand the Italian mindset,” Buonfiglio explained. “We came away empty-handed, and much of the foundational work built before his ar
