Ruben Loftus-Cheek Transfer from Milan to Lazio
Ruben Loftus-Cheek's transfer from Milan to Lazio was not completed, and he remains at Milan. The move was under negotiation. Repubblica reported that Lazio's sporting director, Angelo Fabiani, went to the Carabinieri to report disturbances regarding this and two other transfers. Fabiani's report alleges that international agent Ylan Singer interfered. According to messages sent to Guido Albers, who is Taylor's agent, Singer stated that they were preventing them from signing Loftus and Samardzic. Singer also stated that the people with them are very powerful and that he was unable to tell them Albers was not answering the phone.
Tuttomercato reported that Fabiani made every effort to satisfy his coach regarding Ruben Loftus-Cheek, and that Loftus-Cheek had given a non-committal indication of his availability to join the coach in Formello. However, the player will wait until summer to decide whether to leave Milan.
According to Tuttomercato, Lazio is prepared to make a significant effort to sign Ruben Loftus-Cheek from Milan.
CalcioMercato reports that Ruben Loftus-Cheek could be involved in a potential transfer between Milan and Lazio. The transfer might be part of a market negotiation that also involves Mario Gila.
According to Sky Sport, Lazio has identified Ruben Loftus-Cheek of Milan as the ideal profile for the mezzala role. The operation is described as difficult, because Loftus-Cheek started for Milan in the most recent weekend.
According to Tuttomercato, Ruben Loftus-Cheek continues to be monitored in the Premier League, but there have not been any concrete offers. In Italy, both Lazio and Napoli have shown interest; however, Milan are unwilling to strengthen direct rivals.
Tuttomercato reports on Lazio's consideration of Ruben Loftus-Cheek as a potential transfer target. Ruben Loftus-Cheek, a central midfielder and an old favorite of coach Maurizio Sarri from their time at Chelsea, was considered by Lazio. However, his profile does not align with Lazio's strategy to rejuvenate their squad. Loftus-Cheek earns a high salary, and Milan is not willing to release him for a low fee. Lazio has decided to invest in younger talent like Fabbian, possibly leaving Bologna.
Former Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek has become a potential target for his former manager at Chelsea, Maurizio Sarri, who is currently at Lazio. According to sources speaking to CaughtOffside, Sarri had previously wanted Loftus-Cheek at Lazio two years ago. Now, following Sarri’s return to the managerial position, the AC Milan attacking midfielder is once again on Lazio’s radar. Despite some media linking Lazio with Samuele Ricci, the club has reportedly shifted its focus to other targets, with Loftus-Cheek being a possibility if AC Milan decides to make him available this summer, although this decision remains uncertain. Loftus-Cheek is considered a promising acquisition for Sarri at Lazio, given their successful collaboration during the 2018/19 season at Chelsea, which was one of Loftus-Cheek’s standout seasons at Stamford Bridge. The 29-year-old has been performing well in Serie A, despite his recent season with Milan not matching the success of the previous one. A change of environment and the opportunity to reunite with a manager familiar with his abilities could potentially be a beneficial career move for Loftus-Cheek.
