Chelsea defender offered to AC Milan

AC Milan are looking to sign a new defender in January and agent Federico Pastorello has offered one of his clients on loan.

The injury of Simon Kjaer has forced AC Milan to look on the market for a new centre back. The season is practically over for the Denmark captain who is expected to stay out for at least six months. Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara have already received a big number of calls from agents who want to move their clients to San Siro.

Journalist Nicolo Schira reports that Federico Pastorello has contracted the Rossoneri to propose a solution. The famous Italian agent has offered Chelsea defender Malang Sarr to AC Milan on loan.

The 22-year-old made 119 official appearances with Nice before moving to England. He started to play regular football at just 17 years old. Sarr spent his first year on loan at Porto but was forced to remain at Chelsea this season after a loan transfer to Bundesliga collapsed on deadline day.

The France U-21 defender has made 3 appearances with Chelsea so far. It’s not been easy for the young centre-back who has to fight for a starting shirt with established names like Thiago Silva, Rudiger, Christensen and Chalobah. However, nobody doubts the talent of Sarr who has been tipped for success by Pastorello.

At the moment AC Milan are considering all options. Maldini is waiting for Elliott’s decision on the exact transfer budget he will have available to spend in January. Chelsea and Milan have often done business together in recent seasons. Last summer the Rossoneri completed the permanent signing of Fikayo Tomori while another Blues player, Tiémoué Bakayoko, arrived on loan.
