Bakayoko heads back to Milan on loan

Tiemoue Bakayoko has returned to Milan from Chelsea, joining the Serie A club on a two-year loan deal.

Midfielder Bakayoko previously played for the Rossoneri back in the 2018-19 season, making 42 appearances in all competitions and scoring a solitary goal while working with head coach Gennaro Gattuso.

The 27-year-old also played in Italy last term too, spending the campaign with Gattuso again, this time at Napoli.

However, the Frenchman is now heading back to Milan, where he will team up with former Chelsea duo Fikayo Tomori and Olivier Giroud at San Siro.

He will remain with Milan, who revealed there is an obligation for a permanent transfer if certain criteria are met, until 2023.
