AC Milan have reignited their interest in Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek after agreeing to sell Sandro Tonali to Newcastle for £65million.
Loftus-Cheek is free to leave Chelsea this summer and Milan have made the 27-year-old a priority target.
Chelsea value Loftus-Cheek at £25m but Milan hope they will lower that asking price to around £15m because he only has one year left on his contract.
Milan had walked away from talks over Loftus-Cheek when club legend and sporting director Paolo Maldini was sacked earlier this month.
