Chelsea send Tiemoue Bakayoko to Napoli on season-long loan

France international midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko will spend a third successive season away from Chelsea after joining Napoli on loan.

Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko has been loaned out for a third time, joining Napoli on a season-long deal.

The 26-year-old struggled to impress in his maiden campaign at Stamford Bridge in 2017-18 and has spent the subsequent two seasons on loan with AC Milan and Monaco.

Bakayoko played under Gennaro Gattuso at Milan and will reunite with the legendary former midfielder at Napoli, where he will spend the next eight months.

Gattuso's side won their opening two Serie A fixtures, but they were unable to field a team against Juventus on Sunday due to coronavirus restrictions and face forfeiting the game.

One-cap France international Bakayoko will be into the final year of his Chelsea contract when he returns to West London at the end of the season.
