Chelsea to AC Milan: Bring £26m for Tomori or no deal

By Our Reporter On Mar 23, 2021 0

Chelsea are not backing down in their demands for Nigeria born England international Fiyako Tomori.

The English centre-back is enjoying a fine loan spell with AC Milan, having made 11 appearances for the Rossoneri.

Milan have spoken publicly about their admiration for Tomori.

No formal negotiations have commenced, but Chelsea’s stance is set in stone.

According to Goal, the Blues will not accept anything lower than the £26m option-to-buy clause attached to Tomori’s loan.

Tomori, 23, came through the academy ranks at Cobham before breaking into the first-team under Frank Lampard in the 2019/20 season.

Capped once by England, Tomori struggled for playing time under Frank Lampard this season and was loaned to Milan in January.
