Both Milan clubs – Inter and AC – are interested in signing Chelsea winger Pedro in the summer.
The 31-year old forward is out of contract at the end of next season at Stamford Bridge, and now Chelsea face a struggle to hang on to him amidst the encouraging noises coming his way from Serie A.
The reports will come as unwelcome news for a club already battling to keep hold of Eden Hazard, amidst persistent rumours linking the Belgian with a move to Real Madrid. Willian has also been connected with a move away from the club, with both Real Madrid and Barcelona monitoring his situation.
All this comes against a backdrop of Chelsea facing a two-window transfer ban unless their appeal, scheduled for April 11, fails. In that eventuality, the club has already indicated that they intend to go to the Court for Arbitration for Sport to try to get any embargo suspended.
