AC Milan have made a move for Chelsea defender Fikayo Tomori.

According to Italian sports journalist Fabrizio Romano, Italy's league leaders Milan have approached Chelsea about a possible loan deal which Tomori would be open to.

The report claims, however, that Strasbourg defender Mohamed Simakan is Milan's first choice as Stefano Pioli's side look to bolster their defence for their Serie A title charge.

Milan sit three points clear of city rivals Inter Milan in what was a promising weekend for the club.

Pioli's side beat lowly Torino 2-0 at home even without talisman Zlatan Ibrahimovic while Antonio Conte's Inter were denied victory by a late equaliser in their 2-2 draw with Roma.
