AC Milan target Chelsea defence ace after losing hope in Barcelona defender

AC Milan are reportedly interested in Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen seemingly losing patience with Barcelona defender Jean-Clair Todibo.

The Rossoneri have been in talks with Barca over a proposed deal for Todibo for weeks, but the defender has been dithering, as apparently he isn’t enthusiastic about the idea of joining the Diavolo.

According to Football Italia, the defender wanted a buyback clause inserted into any potential deal, and he now has also been included in the Barca squad for their trip to Saudi Arabia for the Spanish Super Cup.

La Gazzetta dello Sport now report that Milan are quickly losing patience with the Frenchman, and are looking at other alternatives.

The Milan daily states that the club are now looking at Chelsea’s Christensen.

But other reports claim that Milan are considering a loan move with a view to making a permanent deal in the summer.

The 23-year-old has only made twelve appearances times this season under Frank Lampard, and could prove a cheaper option than Todibo.

Christensen can play as a central defender or at right-back.
