Ruben Loftus-Cheek is not for sale, at least where AC Milan are concerned. However, that does not mean that he is off the market. Instead, he is one to consider.
Before the January mercato, there were suggestions that Loftus-Cheek could leave Milan, with him pushing for a spot in the England World Cup squad. However, there has not been any movement just yet.
Massimiliano Allegri does not want to part with the midfielder, and this viewpoint is shared by the Rossoneri. If his departure means others can arrive, though, questions would have to be asked.
Sales change the picture
Lazio have been the main point of interest for him, and things are no different; they remain interested. In fact, with the sale of Matteo Guendouzi to Fenerbahce, as well as the €30 million received for Taty Castellanos, they could even start to make a more appealing move.
As Calciomercato.com reports, Maurizio Sarri is still the priority, and he is the ‘first request’ for this winter. New contacts have taken place, and the Englishman’s agents have been working to find an agreement regarding his salary.
The Rossoneri are very much aware of this, and whilst there is no sign of an imminent deal, he is not deemed unsellable. So, if Igli Tare receives a fair offer, it would be considered, especially if it were to aid a move for a new defender.
