Bakayoko linked with return to France after Milan struggles

Marseille could offer Tiemoue Bakayoko a route back to France, according to reports.

Transfermarket.web, as cited on Calciomercato, claim that the Ligue 1 side are interested in a deal to sign the French midfielder.

There have been suggestions that the Chelsea loanee could be on the move again in January after struggling to impress in Milan.

Bakayoko joined the San Siro outfit on loan during the summer in a bid to get his career back on track after failing to impress under Antonio Conte at Stamford Bridge.

However, the move has not had the desired effect and Bakayoko continues to look a shadow of the player that was a key figure in Monaco’s title-winning side.

Talk of a return to Chelsea has been played down with the player not part of Maurizio Sarri’s plans, but he could return to London to secure a move elsewhere during the January window.
