Fikayo Tomori has completed his move to AC Milan from Chelsea after the Italian side activated their option to buy the defender on a permanent basis.
Having impressed during his time on loan at San Siro, the Canada-born England international has put pen to paper on a four-year deal worth £25 million ($34m).
Tomori becomes Milan’s second signing of the summer, with Mike Maignan having joined from Lille to replace Gianluigi Donnarumma.
“AC Milan is delighted to announce the exercising of the option for the permanent transfer of Oluwafikayomi Oluwadamilola Tomori from Chelsea,” a statement from the Serie A side reads.
“The English defender, who made 22 appearances and scored one goal over the last season, will continue to play with the Club until 30 June 2025.”
Chelsea’s official website added: “Fikayo Tomori will complete a permanent transfer from Chelsea to AC Milan on 1 July.
“The defender spent the second half of last season on loan with Milan, but will make that move permanent next month after a deal was agreed between the two clubs.”
Across his 22 appearances, Tomori helped Milan secure Champions League qualification with a third-place finish in the Italian top flight.
