AC Milan have agreed a £36m deal – including add-ons – to sign Chelsea forward Christopher Nkunku as the Blues close on a deal for Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho.
Nkunku, 27, is expected to accept a pay cut in order to join the Italian side on a five-year contract and has been given permission to travel for a medical.
The Blues have also included a sell-on clause as part of the deal, which will end Nkunku’s two-year stay at Stamford Bridge.
The move will have wider implications for Chelsea, with negotiations advancing to sign Garnacho.
The Argentina international, 21, has not played for United this season and is one of several players at the club who has been training away from the main group.
No fee has yet been agreed between the two clubs but BBC Sport has been told by sources that a deal is close.
