AC Milan were reportedly keen on signing former Aston Villa midfielder who is 18 years old Carney Chukwuemeka. The Englishman eventually joined Premier League side Chelsea for a whopping fee around 23 million euros.
According to The Athletic yesterday, the new Chelsea starlet had interested buyers such as FC Barcelona and AC Milan:
"Barcelona had considered an offer and Italian champions AC Milan were willing to pay €3.5million (£3m) to sign him this summer. There was rival interest from England but nothing to suggest that a club would offer enough money to appease Villa."
