AC Milan star Fikayo Tomori has taken to social media on Friday, to respond to news of Chelsea’s Ruben Loftus-Cheek following him to San Siro.
For those not aware, midfielder Loftus-Cheek’s Rossoneri switch was, at long last, made official late this evening.
On the back of weeks of speculation, the respective boards in Milan and west London struck an agreement, over the terms of a transfer with the potential to rise to €20 million.

And, as alluded to above, one individual who is evidently overjoyed with news of RLC’s arrival in Italy comes in the form of Diavolo star Fikayo Tomori.
Tomori, of course, is very much familiar with the talents of his side’s latest recruit.
This comes after both he and Loftus-Cheek made their way through the famed Chelsea academy, before uniting as teammates at senior level at Stamford Bridge.
In a post across his official social media platforms, Tomori unveiled a simple but effective message, reading ‘RUBENNNN’, alongside a series of emojis.

Tomori is not the only former Chelsea teammate whom Loftus-Cheek is in line to reunite with in Lombardy, with Olivier Giroud also a central figure in Stefano Pioli’s squad.
Not only that, but Milan are understood to be expressing a keen interest in the services of Christian Pulisic, too.
Christian Pulisic has an agreement in principle on a long-term deal to leave Chelsea and move to AC Milan.
