Former Chelsea midfielder Loftus-Cheek takes Tonali's No. 8 shirt at AC Milan -
The English midfielder recently signed a four-year deal with Milan following a transfer from Chelsea that was reportedly worth 16 million euros .
“I was at Chelsea for 20 years of my life. This is a special time for me to finally break away from the club, start a new chapter in my life,” Loftus-Cheek said in a video posted on Milan’s website Tuesday. Having coming up through Chelsea’s youth system, Loftus-Cheek played seven seasons for the Blues with 155 appearances and 13 goals. He won two Premier League titles with Chelsea, a Club World Cup, a European Super Cup and a League Cup. He also had loan spells at Crystal Palace and Fulham.“I’ve spoken to him a lot the past month, couple of months even, especially when things came out in the press and he was asking me if I was coming,” Loftus-Cheek said.
Loftus-Cheek fills a hole in Milan’s midfield that was created when Sandro Tonali left for Newcastle. He will wear Tonali’s No. 8 shirt with the Rossoneri. His closest experience to Serie A came when he played under Italian coaches Antonio Conte and Maurizio Sarri at Chelsea.“He was just an incredible runner with the ball and that’s one of my strengths in the game - when I can open up and run with the ball and Kaka was one of the best of that,” Loftus-Cheek said.
