Bakayoko offered to Milan after being deemed ‘too phsycial’

Tiemoue Bakayoko has been offered to AC Milan after being deemed ‘too physical’ for Maurizio Sarri’s style of play.

Calciomercato reports that the Italian side have been offered the chance to sign the player, but do not consider him a priority at the moment.

The report claims that Sarri is open to selling the player this summer.

The French midfielder’s future appears to be away from Stamford Bridge following the arrival of the Italian coach.

The signing of former Napoli midfielder Jorginho, who is set to play a key role in Sarri’s side, has cast further doubts over his future.

Bakayoko struggled to impress during his first season in London and could fall even further down the pecking order this season.

With Sarri implementing a 4-3-3 system, both Jorginho and N’Golo Kante after expected to start, leaving one position up for grabs.

Ross Barkley has started and impressed in midfield during pre-season, while Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Cesc Fabregas will also be hopeful of competing for a place.
