Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi wants to keep on-loan Chelsea midfielder Marco van Ginkel at the club for another season.
The 22-year-old Dutch midfielder impressed in Sunday’s 3-0 win over Torino but has been limited by injuries for much of the campaign, and Inzaghi believes he can make a huge difference if he gets the chance to return.
“Unfortunately he is not our player,” Inzaghi said of Van Ginkel.
“But he has grown a lot. He has played seven or eight games in a row and we are starting to see a great player.
“Chelsea have great midfielders and he is need of playing. My will would be if possible to keep him because he can give us a big hand.”
Ankle injuries have limited the Holland international to just 16 appearances all season, but he has started their last 11 Serie A matches after returning to action in March.
