Agent of Chelsea midfielder confirms imminent Milan move: “A done deal”

Ruben Loftus-Cheek will be the first signing of the summer for AC Milan. An agreement has been reached between all parties and only the medical is missing to complete the move, as confirmed by the agent. 

Milan and Chelsea have reached an agreement at €16m plus an additional €4m in bonuses, per Gazzetta Dello Sport, and the player is expected to sign a four-year deal. He will be their first reinforcement for the midfield after Sandro Tonali’s exit, therefore.

As relayed by the Egyptian outlet FilGoal, the transfer ‘is a done deal’ as per the player’s agent Jonathan Barnett. Loftus-Cheek could thus soon arrive in Milano and undergo the medical tests before signing the contract.

Milan are also expected to sign one or two more midfielders this summer, given that Ismael Bennacer will be sidelined until the end of the year. And the arrival of Loftus-Cheek certainly doesn’t fully replace Tonali.
