Although the Serie A club and Porto have agreed to a €15 million transfer price, the Iranian international has not yet agreed to personal conditions. According to Porto director and former custodian Vitor Baia, "Porto and Milan agreed terms for Taremi, but they now need to strike a deal with the player, so negotiations continue." In the event that their agreement to purchase Taremi falls through and Burstow is on their shortlist, AC Milan are reportedly now evaluating options.
According to the report, the 20-year-old's loan to the Italian club is being considered. Burstow, who was also a target for Blackburn Rovers in the final days of the summer transfer window, transferred from Charlton Athletic to Chelsea in January of last year. Burstow, who spent last season with Chelsea's youth squad and registered 10 goals in 25 league appearances, participated in preseason training with the first team this summer under Mauricio Pochettino.
