Premier League

Chelsea flop Tiemoue Bakayoko has hinted he is keen on a return to AC Milan as the blues prepare to sell him this summer window. Bakayoko has been a flop since his £40m move to the club.

Premier League, Ligue 1, Seria A, Transfer Info

Liverpool midfielder Fabinho believes Chelsea could live to regret sending Tiemoue Bakayoko on loan without giving his former Monaco teammate a fair chance. The France international was signed a season ago by Antonio Conte in a £35million deal but he failed to live up to expectation at Stamford Bridge, although he did start the final four games of last campaign, including the FA Cup final victory over Manchester United.
