Around 24 hours ago it appeared as though Mehdi Taremi was going to complete his move to Milan after a few days of negotiations. However, various obstacles arose that mean there is now a race against time to get things done.
According to what Luca Marchetti told Sky (via MilanNews), in the event that Milan do not get a deal over the line for Taremi, the name of Mason Burstow is being considered as a loan option.
The Chelsea centre-forward would arrive to replace Colombo, now close to moving on loan to Monza, and he is highly rated within the Blues’ ranks.
He amassed 11 goals and 4 assists in 30 appearances for Chelsea’s U21 side, and he also scored 6 goals for Charlton in 23 games. He has played three times for Chelsea’s senior side this season so far but only for a combined 72 minutes.
