According to The Telegraph, Chelsea are likely to make a second offer for the Brighton star once they've recuperated more money from sales. The Blues have already secured a healthy windfall from the departure of Kalidou Koulibaly, and others are expected to follow suit soon.

With Chelsea in need of a new goalkeeper to rival Kepa Arrizabalaga, the Telegraph add that a bid for Mike Maignan is being considered. The report states that Pochettino is willing to start next season with the Spaniard as his No.1, but the AC Milan shot-stopper has been eyed.

According to Fabrizio Romano, AC Milan and Chelsea are close to reaching an agreement over the transfer of Loftus-Cheek. The report states that the Cobham graduate will cost €16million (£13.7million), including a further €4million (£3.4million)worth of add-ons.

It's said that personal terms have already been agreed and Loftus-Cheek is 'really excited' about joining the Rossoneri. Despite his incredible ceiling as a teenager, he's struggled to fulfil his lofty potential in west London.
