AC Milan will attempt to sign Chelsea defender Fikayo Tomori permanently.

The Englishman has impressed since joining the Italian giants on loan in January.

He is starring in Serie A, and will get a chance to show his quality in the Europa League round of 16 clash with Manchester United later this month.

Milan legend and technical director Paolo Maldini says the club will try to sign him this summer.

"Tomori is a good talent and we have a buy-option clause," he told Sky in Italy.

"The price is very high.

"AC Milan will decide at the end of this season and we will discuss it with Chelsea's board."
