Tiemoue Bakayoko close to completing Chelsea exit

By , Editor
Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko is reportedly on the verge of leaving the club to join Napoli on a season-long loan.

Chelsea are reportedly on the verge of offloading Tiemoue Bakayoko on loan to Napoli for the 2020-21 season.

The 26-year-old has spent the last two seasons out on loan, including a season with AC Milan in 2018-19 where he played under current Napoli boss Gennaro Gattuso.

The Daily Mail reports that Bakayoko is now set to reunite with Gattuso at the Stadio San Paolo after a loan deal was agreed between the two clubs.

Bakayoko is set to undergo a medical today, with official confirmation of the deal expected in the near future.

The Frenchman joined Chelsea for around £40m in 2017 and made 43 appearances during his debut season at Stamford Bridge.

However, his performances were widely criticised and he has not played for the Blues in any competition since May 2018.
