Torres: "It's easier when you have great players around you, like I do at Milan"

Fernando Torres showed a glimpse of his past glories by scoring for AC Milan in his first start for the club.

The Spanish striker, who joined Milan on a two-year loan deal from Chelsea last month, helped the Rossoneri hit back from a 2-0 deficit to claim a point at Empoli on Tuesday.

Chelsea striker Fernando Torres is to join AC Milan on a two-year loan deal.

The Spaniard's move is subject to him agreeing personal terms and passing a medical on Saturday.

The ex-Liverpool and Atletico Madrid forward joined Chelsea for a then-British record £50m in January 2011.

Milan contact Torres' agent over Chelsea loan deal

AC Milan are believed to have contacted Fernando Torres’ agent about a loan move away from Chelsea this summer.

The out-of-favour Blues forward is said to be willing to leave Stamford Bridge during this transfer window although buying clubs have so far been unwilling to match the Spain international’s current £150,000-a-week wages.
