Milan are preparing a January bid for Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas, according to the Corriere dello Sport.
This certainly isn’t the first time they have been linked with the Spain international, but there are several elements that make it more likely than ever.
The 31-year-old’s current contract with Chelsea is due to expire at the end of the season and a January exit would prevent him leaving as a free agent.
He is also struggling for playing time under new Coach Maurizio Sarri, making only one appearance in the Community Shield defeat to Manchester City.
It would be a maiden Serie A experience for Fabregas, who played only for Barcelona and Arsenal before moving to Stamford Bridge in 2014.

It's best for him to leave, he's done his best for CFC and better to leave d rest to young lads. He's one of d midfield generals that I'll be waiting to see as a brilliant pundits and not as a speculative kind.

this is what I call sensational journalism, they are just making up a story and nothing more. How can they say that Fabregas is struggling for playing time when he's not even match fit. Yes his contract will end at the end of the season but that doesn't mean he won't get another contract offer before the end of the season.
