Tuttosport: Milan seriously considering move for Chelsea defender

AC Milan are seriously considering a move for Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah this month but they could still make a bid for Stade Brest’s Lilian Brassier.

As has been reported by Tuttosport (via Milan News), Milan could try and use the same transfer formula that they used to sign Fikayo Tomori from Chelsea, a move that proved to be extremely successful.

Chalobah could end up signing for Milan on loan this month with the Rososneri having an option to sign him permanently at the end of the season for a previously agreed fee.

Milan and Chelsea currently enjoy very good relations, with players like Christian Pulisic and Ruben Loftus-Cheek having recently made the same move that Chalobah might.

Chalobah is not playing regularly for Chelsea, but this is partly because he just returned from a knee injury, something Milan must be wary of.

Were Milan to decide against a move for Chalobah, there is still the option of Brassier at Stade Brest. He may cost €10-12m which Milan think is too much.

If it became clear that he is the only option towards the end of the window, then Milan may decide to take the risk and pay for a permanent deal.
