Chelsea defender Fikayo Tomori hopes to make the most of the time he spends at AC Milan this season.

The youngster secured a loan move during the January transfer window, and will spend the rest of the term with the Italian giants.

As he adapts to his new teammates and surroundings, Tomori hopes he can make the most of this loan move.

"Personally I always liked the idea of living in a different country, it wasn't much of a shock mentally, I always thought it would be nice," Tomori told Sky Sports News.

"I'm enjoying it, obviously I can't see my family as much but luckily we have FaceTime so I can keep in touch."

On making his debut against Inter Milan, Tomori added: "[It] wasn't something I thought would happen. Leading up to the game, I thought about all the times you see AC Milan against Inter Milan on TV.

"In England it's always been a big game, and to make my debut in that game at the San Siro, it was a dream come true.

"Even driving up to the stadium, I saw fans with massive flags and you see them chanting and waving their hands - you could feel the passion coming into the game.

"When I was asked to warm up, I found myself a bit nervous and I don't really get nervous but seeing the red and black and blue and black stripes, it was amazing."
