AC Milan have three Chelsea players among their leading targets for the summer transfer window.
Sky in Italy report that Olivier Giroud’s agent has already agreed a two-year deal for the striker at the San Siro, worth €3.5million per season plus bonuses.
But there is the chance of a much wider deal which could include attacking midfielder Hakim Ziyech, who has only been with Chelsea for a year.
Ziyech is understood to be Milan’s top target to replace Hakan Calhanoglu, the Turkey international who joined fierce rivals Inter earlier this week on a free transfer.
Milan have other significant names in mind for that role, including former Leicester loanee Cengiz Under, Atletico Madrid’s Thomas Lemar and also Everton’s James Rodriguez.
To complete the hat-trick, Milan could also turn to a player who they previously had on loan from Chelsea – defensive midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko.
Bakayoko, who has not played for Chelsea since 2018, spent the 2018-19 season on loan with Milan before spells with Monaco and Napoli.
