AC Milan hold Fabregas talks

Spain international Cesc Fabregas has opened up discussions with AC Milan over a January move. The 29-year-old has seen his playing time cut short since Antonio Conte's appointment at Chelsea in the summer.

Tuttosport says the midfielder is discontent with his stay at Stamford Bridge despite suggesting that he is committed to the Blues last month.

Fabregas missed on the Blues' latest win over Leicester City due to a muscular problem, but this does not deny the fact that he would be a regular on the bench when fit.

Milan boss Vincenzo Montella had claimed earlier this month that Fabregas lacks the characteristics they are looking for, but still reports continue to link the former Arsenal man with a switch to San Siro.

Fabregas has made a solitary league start for the Blues this term, that too coming in a 3-1 defeat to Arsenal at the Emirates.
