Badiashile joined Chelsea from AS Monaco

Chelsea have turned down AC Milan’s loan proposal for former AS Monaco centre-back Benoit Badiashile.

Tuttomercato claims that Milan’s efforts to acquire Badiashile on a loan with a buyout clause have been rejected by the Blues. The Frenchman is thought to be a crucial component of Mauricio Pochettino’s team.

This season, Badiashile, 22, has enjoyed three appearances in various competitions, with one assist and one goal. Although he has faced multiple fitness concerns, he has assisted his team in keeping one clean sheet.

The youthful centre-defender cost an estimated £35 million when he transferred from AS Monaco to Chelsea in January. One of Europe’s most promising defenders, he is anticipated to eventually establish himself as a regular part of Didier Deschamps’ France squad.

Recent transactions between Milan and the west Londoners included the summertime arrival of Christian Pulisic and Ruben Loftus-Cheek to the San Siro. The two titans of Europe get along well when it comes to moving business.

Malang Sarr is also attracting the attention of the Rossenerri. According to Calciomercato, Chelsea might be more than happy to let go of Badiashile’s teammate, who hasn’t played a single game this year.

When Badiashile first came to Stamford Bridge earlier this season, he signed a seven-year contract. Under Pochettino, he is up against players like Thiago Silva, Axel Disasi, and Levi Colwill for a regular spot.

Victor Osimhen of Napoli have been mentioned as a potential striker for Chelsea, who are anticipated to be in the market for one in January. One of Europe’s most productive forwards, the Nigerian forward has scored six goals in 12 games across all competitions.

With 26 goals in 31 games, Osimhen, 24, was Serie A’s leading scorer in the previous campaign. He played a key role in Gli Azzurri’s first-ever Serie A championship victory in thirty-three years.
