Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has made a late bid to sign Bayern Munich's Renato Sanches ahead of AC Milan. But Conte is determined to strengthen his squad and has made a move to try and steal Sanches from under Milan's noses. Chelsea and Bayern faced each other in the International Champions Cup on Tuesday evening and it understood Conte spoke with Carlo Ancelotti, the Bundesliga champions' manager, after the game to discuss a potential deal. Bayern are prepared to allow Sanches, 19, out on loan for the season after a disappointing debut campaign and have also had interest from AC Milan for the midfielder. Conte is interested in taking the £30 million Portuguese star on loan for the season and has made an enquiry during Chelsea's pre-season tour of Singapore.

Chelsea have made a late attempt to sign Bayern Munich midfielder Renato Sanches on loan. Sanches made a name for himself at Benfica and with Portugal at Euro 2016, but has struggled since moving to Bayern in a deal totaling €80m. "Conte asked for some information about him after Tuesday's match because he knows he can make the difference on the pitch. "The club knows very well which is my idea and where are the positions to strengthen and if this is possible, it is ok. "There are at least 10 teams after Sanches," Karl-Heinz Rummenigge told Gazzetta dello Sport.This content may collect you by Max Nolan
