He made 43 appearances under Antonio Conte and lifted the FA Cup but never really settled into the Chelsea midfield.
The French midfielder was shipped off to AC Milan on Lon the following season where he once again struggled before being loaned out again to Monaco the following year. Bakayoko was then loaned to AC Milan for the 2018-19 campaign.
He then spent the 2020-21 campaign back in Serie A on loan at Napoli before moving to Milan on two-year loan deal with the Frenchman making only 21 appearances over the course of the loan spell.
