Fabrizio Romano shuts down Arsenal links to Rafael Leao

Leao staying put at AC Milan, says Romano
Transfer insider Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Portuguese winger Rafael Leao is not on Arsenal’s radar this summer. Responding to a fan’s question on Threads, Romano stated clearly:
“Never been an option. Leao stays at Milan.”
The update ends speculation linking the AC Milan star with a Premier League switch, specifically to Mikel Arteta’s side.
Arsenal eyeing winger options — but only if someone leaves
Arsenal have been linked to a number of left-wingers this transfer window, including Real Madrid’s Rodrygo and Newcastle’s Anthony Gordon. However, sources suggest the club will only move for a new wide player if one of their current options — Leandro Trossard or Gabriel Martinelli — departs.
For now, the Gunners’ pursuit of attacking reinforcements remains on hold.
What’s next for Arsenal?
With the new season fast approaching and no major outgoings yet confirmed on the wings, it looks increasingly likely Arsenal will stick with their current wide options — at least for now.
