Ruben Loftus-Cheek is in Milan for his medical tests ahead of a transfer to AC Milan, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The midfielder was on the cusp of moving right back at the start of this month, but the sackings of technical director Paolo Maldini and his technical director Ricky Massara sent the deal back to the drawing board.
But the sale of Sandro Tonali has given them an injection of cash and an injection of urgency to repair their suddenly stripped midfield, and they’ve immediately turned back to their previous target RLC.
If we sell him, it will be our midfield which is the one looking a little thin. We will seriously have to get our with our pursuit of Moises Caicedo and probably at least one other player in that position after selling off Mateo Kovacic and Loftus-Cheek and letting N’Golo Kante go on a free.
The new era of our midfield has truly begun.
