Milan have reportedly paid around £15million as RLC bids to revive his injury-hit career.

He’s the latest of many ex-Chelsea youth players to depart over the past decade despite winning international honours.

It follows Manchester United agreeing a £60m transfer for Blues’ 24-year-old playmaker Mason Mount.

Former Chelsea and Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud, 36, is also at Milan.
