| Branislav Ivanovic could leave Chelsea for the Serie A in January |
Chelsea defender Ivanovic is out of contract next summer and has struggled to impress at Stamford Bridge this season.
The Serbia international has made 19 appearances for the club this season yet has contributed to just five clean sheets.
He is expected to be moved on at the end of the season as Chelsea seek to restructure their defence.
But Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport claim the 31-year-old's stint in west London may be ended six months early.
It is claimed Milan are keen to sign the right-back as they ramp up their title challenge.
The San Siro giants have struggled for form this season and sit sixth in Serie A.
They went into the winter break unbeaten in six games, however, and are keen to recruit in January ahead of a big push towards the top of the table.
Gazzetta claim Milan will hope to land Ivanovic on a cheap deal, knowing that Chelsea could lose him for free next July.
They are also interested in Juventus' Martin Caceres, who has not played for the Turin club since September.
Caceres is also out of contract in the summer of 2016 but Milan may struggle to secure the signing from a title rival before the season is out.
Ivanovic, who is also a reported target of Inter Milan, has won the Premier League title twice with Chelsea as well as the Champions League, Europa League, the FA Cup three times and the League Cup
