Chelsea star Ruben Loftus-Cheek will undergo a medical on Thursday ahead of his upcoming move to AC Milan.
So says Daily Telegraph reporter Mike McGrath.

This morning he reported on Twitter that Ruben Loftus-Cheek will undergo a medical tomorrow before completing the move to San Siro.

“Ruben Loftus-Cheek will undergo a medical at AC Milan tomorrow, pending his transfer from Chelsea,” said McGrath.

Journalist Matt Law reported on Twitter yesterday that Chelsea and Milan have reached a £15m deal for the transfer of Loftus-Cheek. It now seems like a matter of time before the 27-year-old is officially unveiled at the San Siro.

Loftus-Cheek, who has been at Chelsea since the age of eight, is now ready to leave his youth club.

The central midfielder has been on loan at Fulham and Crystal Palace in the past, but his transfer to Italy will be his first trip abroad.

Ally McCoist said this week he still thinks Loftus-Cheek is a “great player”. He thinks the move to AC Milan could be fantastic for him too.

The Englishman played a useful role as a versatile option in Chelsea’s squad last season, but the club are clearly looking to downsize over this period.

It will certainly be interesting to see how Mauricio Pochettino’s side line up next season, especially in midfield.In the same summer, they say goodbye to players like Mateo Kovacic, N’Golo Kante and Loftus-Cheek.

More news…….

According to reports, Liverpool is dominating the competition to capture the 21-year-old Chelsea target.

Celta Vigo midfielder Gabri Veiga has been linked with a move to the Premier League in recent weeks.

Liverpool are currently leading the race to sign the 21-year-old midfielder this summer, according to a report from the Transfer Room.

The player is also reportedly a target for Chelsea and other Premier League clubs including Manchester United and Newcastle United are monitoring him.

Veiga was a key player for Celta Vigo last season and has eleven goals and four assists to his credit in all competitions.

The talented attacking midfielder has caught the attention of several Premier League clubs with his performances and where he lands remains to be seen.

Apparently, the player has a €40m release clause in his contract and it remains to be seen if the Reds are ready to pay it.

It’s no secret that Liverpool need midfield reinforcements. Veiga can play both as a number ten and as an advanced central midfielder.

The talented youngster will help create goalscoring opportunities for Liverpool and he will also score goals himself.

Chelsea certainly have more financial resources compared to Liverpool but the Reds can offer them European football next season.

It will be interesting to see if Liverpool can fend off competition from their Premier League rivals and sign the talented young midfielder.

Meanwhile, Chelsea also need to add quality and depth in midfield. Players like Mateo Kovacic are expected to move this summer and the Blues should look to sign a good playmaker.
