Chelsea midfielder Cesare Casadei has been linked with a move away from the West London club in recent months.
AC Milan are reportedly keen on signing Cesare Casadei from Chelsea in the January transfer window. The latest update has provided a major boost to the Serie A club’s prospect.
A report from Italian outlet Inter Live claims that the 21-year-old might be ready to accept a move to AC Milan in 2025 despite his history with Inter Milan.
The Italian midfielder needs to play regularly at this stage of his career, and Chelsea will not be able to provide him with that opportunity. A move away from the West London club would be ideal for him, and AC Milan are certainly one of the biggest clubs in the world.
The opportunity to play for the Rossoneri can be quite attractive for any player, and it is no surprise that the 21-year-old is ready to say yes to a winter move. Furthermore, the opportunity to return to his homeland will be an added incentive.
Casadei needs a fresh start, and regular football in Italy could bring out the best in him. The youngster is highly rated across Europe, and he has a bright future ahead of himself. The former Inter Milan prospect has the potential to develop into a quality player in the near future, and AC Milan will certainly hope that he can fulfil his potential with them.
Casadei would be a long-term investment
If AC Milan can sign the 21-year-old for a reasonable amount of money, the move could look like a bargain in the near future. The Chelsea midfield prospect will only improve with coaching and experience. He could easily justify the investment in the long run.
The Rossoneri have previously signed players from Chelsea, and those deals have worked out well for them. The Serie A giants have also shown interest in another Chelsea prospect, Carney Chukwuemeka. They will hope that the 21-year-old can establish himself as an important team player for the club as well.
Meanwhile, Chelsea will look to invest the proceeds from his departure into the playing squad. The Blues have started the season reasonably well, but they need quality additions to finish the season strongly. They need to bring in a reliable goalscorer, and it remains to be seen whether they can get a deal done in January.
