Cesc Fabregas admitted the role he has at Chelsea is “unfortunately not the one I want” amid growing rumours of a Milan move.

The midfielder is being used sparingly by Maurizio Sarri and spoke to reporters after Thursday’s Europa League draw with MOL Vidi.

“I know what my role is. Unfortunately, it's not the one I want. I'm keeping it professional as usual. I'm always trying to do my best, in the conditions, playing with the youngsters, playing with the first team, even though this year I still haven't played with the full, full first team one game.

“But, I'm trying to do what I can. It's a difficult situation for me, obviously. I'm playing the cups and the Europa League. I don't give up. I'm not someone who you'll see complaining or not giving his all because of that.

“I'll always be there showing my face when needed and if the time comes, the time comes. We'll see what happens.”

Milan director Leonardo did not deny he was “evaluating” the Fabregas situation and much if it will be down to the cost.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, the Rossoneri are prepared only to take him on loan, for free or for around €4m in January.
