Chelsea refused to buy Bastoni

Alessandro Bastoni, a defender for the Italy national team and Milan's "Inter" club, could have continued his career at a top English Premier League club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

This was reported by the Gazzetta dello Sport publication. According to the source, the London club "Chelsea" showed interest in purchasing the footballer.

However, the Milan team was not willing to sell their leading player. The "Chelsea" club offered 50 million euros for Alessandro, but this amount did not satisfy the "nerazzurri" management.

Last season, Bastoni played a total of 57 matches, scoring two goals and assisting six. The defender's current contract is valid until the summer of 2028, and his market value is estimated at around 80 million euros.

For this reason, the "Inter" club prefers to keep the player. Bastoni holds an important position in the team's defense line and is expected to remain one of the key players in the future.
