Apparently AC Milan is trying to unsettle The Bison with a rumored bid of 18m (+a player or two). Sounds ridiculous, no? But with McEachran coming into age as Lampard's replacement, Mikel being the clear favorite for the holding role, and Ramires proving that he can be a force to reckon with...and Essien often struggling for form, especially with his multitude of injuries, could this be a move that makes (business) sense somewhere along the line? The 28 year old Essien is under contract until 2015, having signed a multi-year extension just last summer.
