Ted Boehly sent clear message about signing £127M valued star for Chelsea!

Chelsea owner Red Boehly has been warned about making a move to try and sign AC Milan star Rafael Leao in the coming transfer windows

After helping AC Milan win that Seria A title last season – Leao has become one of the most sought-after young attackers in the game – with the likes of Liverpool and Real Madrid also interested in a possible deal

He probably would have left Milan during the summer window – if they did not request that clubs meet his £127 million asking price before they do any business – but they now plan to keep hold of the lad

But there is still alot of speculation in the media that Chelsea are very keen on a transfer deal and will make a move over the next couple of windows to try and get a deal all done and dusted

But after watching the young man against Chelsea in the Champions League Cole cast doubt as to whether Leao ticks the boxes that a player of his reported value should fulfil.

What did he tell BT Sport?

“Do you know what? For all of his talent and everything tonight, there will be scouts here, and there will be question marks on his attitude,” the former Chelsea midfielder said.

“He went like most of his teammates tonight. He went a bit limp against James. He didn’t get his own way. First 20 minutes, he was loving life, chest out, he was running at players.

“Reece James put it on him a bit, and we watched his body language,” added Cole, before reminding potential suitors that there is still time for Leao to elevate his game. “If you’re going to spend £100m or whatever his price tag will be, you’ve got to tick all of the boxes.

“There’s still some time left, and he is exciting.”
