AC Milan have agreed an £18.5m deal in principle to sign Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek.

The Italian side are hopeful of signing the 27-year-old as a replacement for Sandro Tonali, who is set to join Newcastle.

Loftus-Cheek, who has one year left on his Chelsea contract, has spent his entire career at Stamford Bridge with loan spells at Crystal Palace and Fulham.

The Chelsea academy graduate has made 155 appearances for the Blues since making his debut in 2014, scoring 13 goals.

Last season he made 33 appearances in all competitions but failed to score.
