Chelsea to offer Jorginho to AC Milan in Ismael Bennacer bid?

Chelsea could reportedly offer AC Milan the chance to sign Jorginho as the Blues look to beat a number of clubs to the signature of Ismael Bennacer.

The 22-year-old, who has scored once and provided one assist in 33 appearances for Milan this season, has been linked with a number of clubs ahead of this summer's transfer window.

Manchester City and Manchester United are both thought to be keen on the midfielder, but according to Calciomercato, Chelsea are also in the hunt for his signature.

The report claims that Blues boss Frank Lampard believes that Bennacer has the 'ideal profile' for his side.

Meanwhile, it is alleged that the London club are prepared to offer Jorginho as a makeweight, with the Italy international thought to be on his way out of Stamford Bridge this summer.

Bennacer, who has a contract at San Siro until the end of the 2023-24 campaign, is believed to be valued by the Red and Blacks in the region of €50m (£45m).
