AC Milan are still interested in signing Chelsea’s Ruben Loftus-Cheek this summer despite recent developments at the Italian giants.

Loftus-Cheek is one star AC Milan plan on moving for this summer and the end of June or beginning of July could be key for the Englishman’s future as the Serie A outfit will make a formal move for the midfielder then, reports Football Insider.
The Italian side have been long-term admirers of the 27-year-old and aim to progress a deal for him later in the transfer window.
Loftus-Cheek has been told he can leave Chelsea this summer as the Blues look to offload several stars in order to balance the books at the West London club.
