40m Chelsea Flop Wants Permanent AC Milan Switch

Chelsea loanee Tiemoue Bakayoko has talked up the possibility of securing a permanent move to Italian Serie A giants AC Milan.

The 24-year-old spoke about his desire to stay with the seven-time European champions in an interview with Italian media outlet Corriere dello Sport.

Tiemoue Bakayoko revealed that it would be a dream come true for him to secure a permanent transfer to the San Siro.

Frenchman Bakayoko rose to European prominence with French Ligue 1 giants AS Monaco during the 2016/17 season.

He was part of the Monaco team that won the league title for the first time in 17 years during that campaign.

Tiemoue Bakayoko also played a big role as Monaco reached the semifinals of the Champions League for the first time in 13 years before they were knocked out by Italian Serie A champions Juventus.

His Monaco form earned him a £40m move to Chelsea at the start of last season but the move proved to be a step too far for him as he flopped badly at Stamford Bridge.

Bakayoko has found a new lease of life at AC Milan where he’s on loan from the Blues and that has led to talks of a possible stay for him at the end of his loan spell.
