Tomori Milan switch

FIKAYO Tomori has completed a permanent move from Chelsea to AC Milan following a successful loan spell in Italy.

The 23-year-old joined the Serie A club in January after struggling for first-team opportunities during the first half of last season.

Milan had the option to buy Tomori for £25million at the conclusion of his loan and that has been exercised. He played 22 times and helped them qualify for the Champions League.

A four-year deal has been agreed at San Siro for the defender, who has made one appearance for England and was player of the year during a successful loan with Derby County in 2018-19.

Tomori progressed through the Chelsea academy and made his debut for the Blues at the end of the 2015-16 season, but spent much of the next few years on loan with Brighton & Hove Albion, Hull City and Derby.

Frank Lampard handed the youngster more opportunities in the Premier League once he took over at Stamford Bridge.

An England call-up followed and Tomori earned his solitary cap in a Euro 2020 qualifier against Kosovo in November, 2019.
