Rafael Leao’s future at AC Milan remains uncertain, with the forward still described as available for transfer. But the latest update has cooled talk of a move to Chelsea, after Fabrizio Romano dismissed suggestions that the Premier League club is ready to step in.

The report indicates that, despite recent speculation, Chelsea are not currently pursuing Leao. That pushes back against one of the more prominent transfer links surrounding the Milan attacker and leaves no sign of an imminent move to Stamford Bridge.

Milan’s position, however, appears unchanged, with Leao still seen as a player who could leave if the right situation develops. With Chelsea not advancing, attention is instead turning toward other possible destinations.

Turkey and Saudi Arabia are now emerging as the more relevant options in the conversation around Leao. For now, the Milan forward remains one to watch in the market, but the latest indication is that Chelsea are not the club driving his next move.
