Chelsea to buy back another star?! Blues offered chance to re-sign Fikayo Tomori from AC Milan in shock January deal

<p>The 27-year-old defender, who progressed through Chelsea’s youth ranks, had struggled to secure a permanent place in their senior squad before being sold to the Serie A giants in 2021. However, recent developments at AC Milan suggest a potential return to Stamford Bridge might be on the cards, according to journalist Sacha Tavolieri in his column for&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sky-sport.ch/fr/articles/nuno-mendes-sebastian-haller-federico-chiesa-tomori-voici-les-infos-transferts-de-la-semaine/" target="_blank"><em>Sky Sport CH</em></a><em>.</em></p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Tomori’s dissatisfaction at AC Milan stems from a lack of regular game time. In the last ten Serie A matches, the centre-back has managed only 13 minutes on the field. This reduced role has left him questioning his future at the club. Moreover, the uncertainty surrounding Milan’s squad intensified after the sacking of former manager Paulo Fonseca. New head coach Sergio Conceição’s arrival has left multiple players, including Tomori, uncertain about their place in the team and these circumstances have prompted the English defender to consider a move back to the Premier League.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Reports indicate that Tomori is eager to make a January return to English football. While Chelsea are among the clubs he has been offered to, the Blues would have to move a player on to be able to fit him into their squad, and Tavolieri notes that a potential deal could only materialize if Chelsea were to offload one of their current defenders, specifically Axel Disasi.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>While Chelsea weigh their options, Juventus are pressing ahead in their pursuit of Tomori. The Turin-based club appears eager to bolster their defence in January and have to shell out €25-30 million (£21m/$26m-£25m/$31m) for the centre-back.</p>
