AC Milan wants a young Chelsea star, while Ibra is waiting in Turkey
- Mirko Laurenti
Not only Ibra. Milan is working to strengthen the offensive side but also the defensive one, where the only available center back is Zapata after the injuries of Romagnoli, Caldara and Musacchio. According to Sun, AC Milan are interested in Andreas Christensen of Chelsea.
Leonardo has started contacts with Marina Granovskaia, operative boss of the Blues, for the 22 years old Danish, as well as for Gary Cahill and Cesc Fabregas. Between the three players, Christensen is the one that Milan is searching more insistently, for reasons of age and opportunity. The '96 class has an excellent curriculum, he is in the national team and in Champions League since 2015.
A loan could be the most credible solution: Milan would secure the center back that is lacking with a formula compatible with the financial Fair Play stakes and Chelsea would offer an opportunity to grow to its young player. Christensen has already had an experience away from London at Mönchengladbach between 2015 and 2017.
The Bakayoko affair closed this summer would help this deal, the relationship between Chelsea and Leonardo is excellent. AC Milan, however, continues to look also in Brazil, where the name of Rodrigo Caio of San Paolo remains an interesting profile.
