AC Milan are reportedly now interested in Chelsea striker Joao Felix.

The Serie A giants are eyeing a move for the Portugal international, Sky Germany have suggested.
Felix had only moved to Chelsea in the summer from Atletico Madrid. He moved to Stamford Bridge in a deal worth £42m plus £4.3m in add-ons.

He signed a seven-year contract but now he could be moved from the club amid foreign interest.

Journalist Florian Plettenberg posted on Xformerly known as Twitter: “Understand that Milan are now very interested in Joao Felix. Meanwhile, there is still no sign of a transfer for Marcus Rashford. Negotiations are complicated because of the huge financial package involved.”

It comes after the TeamTalk report that new AC Milan coach Sergio Conceição is keen to bring his Portuguese compatriot to the San Siro. The boss’ familiarity with Felix and joint representation by agent Jorge Mendes could smooth the way for a potential deal, it is believed.

AC Milan are aiming to secure Felix on loan with an option to buy, but Chelsea are currently holding out for either a permanent transfer or a loan with an obligation to buy. Negotiations between the clubs are ongoing, with discussions expected to continue in the coming days, reports TeamTalk.

Apart from Felix, AC Milan exploring opportunities to sign more Chelsea players – Rossoneri have made inquiries for Ben Chilwell – wwhich Everton likessuch as CaughtOffside revealed – Carney Chukwuemeka, Christopher Nkunku and Tosin Adarabioyo can all leave.

Chilwell has been tipped to strengthen Milan’s left-back position amid continued uncertainty surrounding Teo Hernandez’s future with the Italian club. Even if the Frenchman extends his contract, Milan see Chilwell as a valuable addition, especially as he is reportedly not part of Enzo Maresca’s plans.

TeamTalk also report that AC Milan have maintained an interest in Chukwuemeka in recent months and the club have initiated contact with Chelsea regarding the midfielder over a possible move to the San Siro club.
