As has been reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, the futures of Tommaso Pobega and Aster Vranckx at Milan seem bleak as they appear to now be behind Bakayoko in the pecking order.
Until October, Pobega was the first alternative to Bennacer and Tonali, but now he has had 229 minutes in 17 games, ten of which were spent entirely on the bench. Vranckx was given a small amount of time recently but does not look set to be kept by Milan at the end of his loan deal.
In the meantime, Bakayoko had not played a minute of football all season for Milan. Then against Monza, he came on for the last eight minutes. He then came on for 25 minutes in the defeat against Fiorentina on Saturday.
