Serie A side, AC Milan have signed defender Fikayo Tomori on loan from Chelsea FC until the end of the season.
Â
The deal for the 23-year-old English defender includes an option to buy, which would cost the Italian side £26.6m (€30m.)
Â
“AC Milan is delighted to announce the signing of Oluwafikayomi Oluwadamilola Tomori on loan from Chelsea FC until the end of the season,” the Italian club said in an official statement.
Â
Â
“The defender has signed a contract until June 30, 2021, but AC Milan have an option to make the deal permanent,” it added.
Â
The defender will wear the No 23 shirt while playing for Stefano Pioli's side
Â
Â
Born in Canada to Nigerian parents and raised in England, Tomori joined Chelsea’s academy at the age of eight and made his Premier League debut with the London-based club in 2016.
Â
During his time with Chelsea’s senior team, he has been loaned out to Brighton & Hove Albion, Hull City, and Derby County. He had to secure a loan move to AC Milan due to the lack of playing time having played only four matches this season.Â
