Milan expected to rival Chelsea in Rugani pursuit

Milan are reportedly considering a January swoop for Chelsea target and Juventus defender Daniele Rugani.

According to reports from Corriere dello Sport, as cited on Calciomercato, Rugani is one of two Juventus players on the club’s radar as the January window looms.

Gennaro Gattuso’s men are said to be considering moves for both Rugani and Medhi Benatia, who have both struggled to get regular game time for the Old Lady this season.

Rugani was heavily linked with Chelsea over the summer, with the Blues coming very close to completing a deal.

Ironically, it was Milan’s transfer business that halted a deal. The Rossoneri signed Mattia Caldara from Juventus and the Turin side were not keen to lose both of their younger defenders in the same window.

Caldara is now sidelined with injuries and Milan want to strengthen in his absence. Chelsea are also expected to reignite their interest in the player in the coming months, with Maurizio Sarri said to be a huge fan.
