AC Milan has launched a second bid – worth around $24million – for Chelsea and Usa Star Christian Pulisic, according to reports.
Pulisic, who cost Chelsea $74m from Borussia Dortmund, is one of 11 players who could leave in the coming days.
The USA international has set his mind on joining Milan, who made a written offer on Sunday of $15.25m plus bonuses for the 24-year-old.
Now The Athletic claim the Italian giants have made a second bid as they look to secure the winger’s signature.
French club Lyon have also offered Chelsea around $26.7m including bonuses and a sell-on.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek is the latest of a number of Chelsea players to join Milan in recent years
But Pulisic, who has only a year left on his contract at Chelsea, has told the Premier League club that he will not be joining Lyon – irrespective of their offer.
Milan knows Pulisic wants to join after four years at Stamford Bridge.
The two clubs have worked together on a number of transfers over recent seasons, involving Olivier Giroud, Fikayo Tomori, Tiemoue Bakayoko and, most recently, Ruben Loftus-Cheek – who signed for Milan last month.
Pulisic made only eight Premier League starts last season for Chelsea, who are beginning life under new manager Mauricio Pochettino.
But the winger remains a key player for the USMNT, having scored 23 goals in 57 international appearances.
