AC Milan will soon sign Fikayo Tomori permanently after the Englishman had impressed very well at the San Siro in just half a season.
The player was brought to Serie A by Maldini and Massara on a loan with option to buy from Chelsea.
The 23 year-old defender convinced the whole management as well as the coaching staff led by Stefano Pioli who said in an older interview the following:
"My will and the technical area are clear, Tomori is giving us satisfaction and has quality of speed and output that improve us. Our will is to redeem him."
Many reports confirmed that Milan will trigger the buy-option clause to keep the player despite not being able to get a discount from Chelsea's director Marina Granovskaia.
Now, trusted Telegraph journalist Matt Law said the following:
"AC Milan will confirm the permanent signing of Fikayo Tomori from Chelsea this afternoon. £25m rising to £30m."
