It appears that the Italian media cannot mention the name of Fikayo Tomori these days without adding ‘€28m’ somewhere in the same sentence.
That’s because the Chelsea loanee continues to impress for the Serie A side ever since joining them during the January transfer window until the end of the campaign, and the idea of buying him is growing stronger by the minute.
We’ve covered numerous articles, ranging from Milan wanting a discount to an ever-growing confidence that a move will be made in the summer, and Gazzetta dello Sport’s view on the matter on Sunday was no different.
The Italian newspaper explain that while the figure of €28m, the option in his contract to make the move permanent, is in fact ‘important’, they add ‘so are the qualities of the boy’.
At the club, ‘the concept is now clear to everyone’, meaning they will buy him, and that’s ‘with or without turnover’, because it would be a ‘woe to pass up someone like that’.
