Chelsea, Man City to pounce as AC Milan prepare to 'sacrifice' Pato

Chelsea and Manchester City are monitoring AC Milan's strikers situation. Corriere dello Sport says Milan are expected to offload one of their Brazilians, Robinho or Alexandre Pato, to make room for incoming Argentine pair Carlos Tevez (Manchester City) and Maxi Lopez (Catania).

Pato is high on the wanted list of Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas, while City manager Roberto Mancini can see the youngster playing alongside Mario Balotelli in the future.

Those close to Milan say one from Pato or Robinho will be sacrificed at the end of the season - if not sooner - should Tevez and Maxi prove themselves alongside Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
