Fernando Torres to accept loan move to AC Milan if wage demand can be met

Torres is said to be willing to leave Stamford Bridge during this transfer window although buying clubs have so far been unwilling to match the Spain international’s current £150,000-a-week wages.

Milan have expressed their interest in recruiting the forward on loan as a replacement for Mario Balotelli even though Torres is believed to want to join the Italian giants on a permanent deal.

But, according to The Telegraph, the striker will now accept a loan transfer to Milan although the club are only willing to pay about £7m-a-year for the player – which would require Torres taking a significant pay cut to seal the move.

Torres – who joined Chelsea in a British record transfer deal of £50million from Liverpool in 2011 – was left out of Jose Mourinho’s squad for The Blues’ 2-0 victory over Leicester at the weekend.
