AC Milan getting closer to signing Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko

AC Milan are close to finalising a loan agreement for Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko, reputed journalist Fabrizio Romano claims.

Bakayoko joined the Blues from Monaco for £36 million in 2017, but he has barely played for them, having been loaned out in the past three seasons.

One of those loan stints was with Milan during the 2018/19 campaign where he made a huge impression under then-manager Gennaro Gattuso.

Bakayoko has admitted in the past that he would like to return to the Rossoneri, and the club are now close to finalising another temporary deal.
