Chelsea are 'handed a DOUBLE transfer blow with Inter defender Milan Skriniar and AC Milan star Rafael Leao set for new contracts at their San Siro clubs'... as Man United's plan to sign the Portuguese winger for £60m next summer hits a bump in the road

Inter centre-back Milan Skriniar and AC Milan winger Rafael Leao are each preparing to sign new contracts at their San Siro clubs, dealing major transfer blows to Chelsea and Manchester United, according to reports.

The Slovakian defender attracted plenty of interest last summer from a handful of top flight European clubs including PSG and Chelsea, who ultimately opted to sign Kalidou Koulibaly and Wesley Fofana at centre-half.

However, it is believed Skriniar firmly remains on Todd Boehly's radar alongside Milan's rising star Leao, who has also riveted the gaze of Red Devils boss Erik ten Hag as well.
