Following their disappointing exit from the UEFA Champions League semifinals at the hands of fierce rivals Inter Milan, AC Milan is already planning for the future. The Italian giants have reportedly identified Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek as a key transfer target for the upcoming season.
AC Milan’s campaign in the Champions League had promised so much, but ultimately ended in heartbreak with a disappointing 3-0 aggregate defeat to their cross-city rivals. As they reflect on what went wrong and consider how to strengthen their squad, Loftus-Cheek has emerged as a player who could provide the midfield creativity they desire.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek, a product of Chelsea’s esteemed youth academy, came onto the scene with his powerful physique, excellent technical skills, and eye for goal. However, the man in blue has struggled for consistent playing time at Stamford Bridge, often being surrounded by injuries and the intense competition within the Chelsea squad. However this is still a rumour and AC Milan would be hoping Chelsea accept the offer made for him in the upcoming Summer transfer window.
