Liverpool have made a move to bring Rafael Leao to Anfield, according to the Italian media, with the report also revealing the competition that Arne Slot faces to get a deal done for the AC Milan star.

Despite winning the Premier League title this season with ease, Liverpool are not resting on their laurels. The Merseyside club have already secured the services of Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen, while Milos Kerkez is also reported to be on his way to Anfield.

Liverpool are also trying to do a deal with Bayer Leverkusen for attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz, and a new name has now emerged on the Reds’ radar.

According to TMW, Liverpool have made contact to sign Leao from Milan in the summer transfer window.

Published in the morning on Tuesday, the report in the Italian news outlet noted: ‘In the last few hours, however, Liverpool has made an important survey.’

While it is true that on the left there are Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo, at least one of the two can be used as a centre forward,’ notes TMW.

“Almost certainly at least one player, if not two, will be inserted into the Reds’ attack.”

TMW has added that Milan have no intention of selling Leao, who was described as “absolutely devastating” by former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher on CBS Sports in April 2023.

However, an offer of €130million (£109.3m, $148m) could change Milan’s stance on the 25-year-old Portugal international left-back.

Leao scored 12 goals and gave 13 assists in 50 appearances for the Rossoneri this
