Bakayoko will not be returning to Chelsea in January

AC Milan will not be sending midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko back to Chelsea in January, according to his agent Federico Pastorello.

He has claimed that Bakayoko is enjoying life in Milan and claims that he will be return to Chelsea in January are false.

Bakayoko is currently on a season-long loan from Chelsea after failing to make an impact at Stamford Bridge last season for the club.

The Frenchman played 43 games for Chelsea last season and was able to score three times.

Speaking to Calcio Mercato, Pastorello said this:

Bakayoko is happy at AC Milan and the club is happy with what he is doing.

We knew he would take time to adapt, but everybody believes that he will help the team during the season. Any speculation about his return to Chelsea is simply untrue.

He joined Chelsea from AS Monaco in 2017 for a deal worth in the region of £40m. Milan have the option to sign Bakayoko for €35m.

Bakayoko made 92 appearances for Monaco in three seasons after his move from Rennes in 2014.
