Reports: Midfielder could yet remain at Milan despite OGC Nice interest

There is still a chance that Tiemoué Bakayoko could remain at AC Milan beyond the end of the transfer window, according to a report.

Several sources have been reporting over the past few days that Bakayoko is not in the plans at Milan and could therefore depart before the transfer window shuts at 20:00 CEST tonight, thus having his two-year loan deal from Chelsea cut short by a year.

However, Corriere dello Sport (via MilanNews) reports that in the last few hours something seems to have stopped. By the end of the day there must be a decision on whether to close his adventure with the Rossoneri early or whether to remain in Stefano Pioli’s squad.

Meanwhile, L’Equipe in France (via MilanNews) are reporting that OGC Nice are looking for a midfielder and for this reason they have been in contact with the entourage of Bakayoko. In the event of an agreement, the French midfielder would terminate his contract deal Milan.
