Michael Essien, lacking playing time at Chelsea, is rumored to be considering a move to AC Milan. The Italian club is in need of reinforcements, especially in midfield, with key players Sulley Muntari and Riccardo Montolivo likely to be absent due to injuries during the Champions League round of 16 against Atletico Madrid. The vice-president of AC Milan has acknowledged the interest in Essien but emphasized that negotiations are not yet open. He mentioned that there are many contacts during the transfer window, and while the appeal of Milan is strong, decisions will be made cautiously. The club is considering options to strengthen the squad for the second part of the season, especially for Champions League fixtures.
