AC Milan 'in talks' with Chelsea striker Giroud over free transfer and 'confident' of landing Tomori permanently

AC MILAN hope to seal permanent deals for Chelsea duo Olivier Giroud and Fikayo Tomori.

The Serie A giants are reportedly talking to striker Giroud's agents and plan to activate a purchase clause on centre-back Tomori's loan deal.


French World Cup winner, 34, is tipped for a summer exit from Thomas Tuchel's Champions League winners.

And Tomori, 23, can join Milan for £25million after reviving his career during his six-month stint with Milan.

Journalist Fabrizio Romano claims Milan regard French World Cup winner Giroud as a "potential opportunity".

And he adds they are "confident" of signing Tomori.

The Canadian-born defender believes his solid half-season in Italy has put him back in the England picture.

His progress at Stamford Bridge under Frank Lampard faded at the start of the campaign.

But he was relegated to the fringes of the first-team squad even before Lampard was axed in January and replaced by Tuchel.

The Italians have indicated they will trigger the automatic permanent deal by agreeing to pay Chelsea a fee of £25m.

"We’ll see what happens at the end of the season."
