According to transfer news from Metro, Franco Baresi wants to sign Chelsea loanee Fikayo Tomori on a permanent basis. Tomori has become the toast of AC Milan as his employers are lavishing praises on him. The Serie A giants have been impressed with his performances.
Despite impressing with a good start to his Chelsea career, his form fizzled out soon last season. Tomori found game time hard to come by towards the end of Frank Lampard’s reign. With the arrival of Thiago Silva, Tomori was sidelined as Kurt Zouma was preferred ahead of the English starlet.
AC Milan came for his services in January and took him on loan until the end of this season. However, they hold a £24m to-buy clause, which they can choose to exercise at the end of the season. Chelsea are regretting the decision to loan him out.
AC Milan honorary vice president and defensive stalwart Franco Baresi has heaped praise on the youngster and wants the club to turn his loan deal into a permanent one.
‘We will do everything possible to sign him on a permanent deal. Two months are remaining until the end of the season, and it’s not only up to Milan.
Tomori is imposing himself with talent and determination. He has shown no fear playing in a new league. He can potentially become a great champion. I hope he lives up to expectations.’
It looks very likely that Tomori has no future at Chelsea if he returns from Milan. With his impressive showings for the Italian giants and the general opinion of the club officials, they are very likely to make his stay a permanent one.
