Loaned out for the past four seasons, this one included, Tiemoué Bakayoko is bored of the nomadic life.
Bought from AS Monaco by Chelsea back in 2017, the defensive midfielder has only managed one full season in the Blues’ shirt, under Antonio Conte.
After that, it’s been a series of loans, with Milan taking him onboard twice, once in 2018 and once again for the next two seasons, where he has the chance to convince the Serie A side to gamble on him permanently if he performs well thanks to an option to buy in his contract that could become compulsory if certain requests are met.
Presented to the press on Thursday, the Chelsea loanee made it clear that if it were up to him, this would be the last transfer for a very long time.
The player then revealed he’s already spoken to the likes of Franck Kessie, whom he knows from his last spell there, as well as Zlatan Ibrahimovic and his former Chelsea teammates Fikayo Tomori and Olivier Giroud.
The rest will come with time, but it’s clear Bakayoko is keen to put his Stamford Bridge spell behind him and is determined to do his best to secure a permanent move to the San Siro.
