Paolo Maldini, the Rossoneri's technical director, and the former legendary defender made a shocking statement to dissuade all European clubs from recruiting his Portuguese talent. The Italian explained that he was doing everything possible to prolong his stay. "Rafa knows that his growth process is in Milan. I think there is a good possibility of reaching an agreement. And this season we are even stronger," he said. Chelsea, who was interested in buying him, might have to pay a very expensive transfer fee.
Leandro Trossard to join the Blues?
