AC Milan are preparing an offer for Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas.

Corriere dello Sport says the midfielder is likely to seek first-team opportunities elsewhere.

The Spaniard is in the final year of his contract at Stamford Bridge and the Blues could cash in to stop him leaving as a free agent come the summer.

Milan have a good working relationship with Milan having seen midfield flop Tiemoue Bakayoko make the switch to Italy this summer on a season-long loan.

Sporting director Leonardo will hope he can once again utilise his good rapport with the Blues to secure the signature of Fabregas.
