Tiémoué Bakayoko will become a Milan player again. After two years, he will return to the club. Chelsea has decided to let the midfielder depart, giving the final approval for the deal.
Bakayoko will transfer to Milan on a loan with fee with an option to buy. He is expected in the city between Friday and Saturday morning, to make the deal official before joining Pioli's squad.
Bakayoko transferred for the first time from Chelsea to Milan in 2018. He played for one year under Gennaro Gattuso with 42 appearances and one goal, but Milan decided not to redeem the option.
Bakayoko then went on loan to Monaco, before returning to Italy for the 2020-2021 season with Napoli. Now the next destination for Bakayoko is Milan.
