OFFICIAL: Fikayo Tomori joins AC Milan on a four-year deal

AC Milan signs Fikayo Tomori from Chelsea for £30m.

The Chelsea academy graduate joined Milan on loan in January and the Italian club decided to make the move permanent this summer.

The 23-year old defender moved to San Siro after failing to nail down a starting place at Chelsea last season.

Tomori made 22 appearances for Milan this season and was instrumental in the club’s qualification for the Champions League.

“AC Milan is delighted to announce the exercising of the option for the permanent transfer of Oluwafikayomi Oluwadamilola Tomori from Chelsea,” a statement from the Serie A side reads.

“The English defender, who made 22 appearances and scored one goal over the last season, will continue to play with the club until 30 June, 2025.”

Chelsea’s official website added: “Fikayo Tomori will complete a permanent transfer from Chelsea to AC Milan on 1 July.

“The defender spent the second half of last season on loan with Milan, but will make that move permanent next month after a deal was agreed between the two clubs.”
