AC Milan want to sign Ruben Loftus-Cheek from Chelsea.
The Italian giants, beaten Champions League semi-finalists this week, are looking to evolve their squad further following their failure in Europe. Loftus-Cheek, 27, will have just a year left at Chelsea after this season and is seen by a string of clubs as representing a bargain at a cut-price deal. But his £150,000-a-week wages could represent a stumbling block.
Loftus-Cheek is set for the exit door after nearly two decades joined Chelsea’s academy at the age of eight. He has enjoyed regular first-team football this season with 20 starts and 10 substitute appearances in all competitions.
