One of the noticeable themes from AC Milan’s recent run of games is that Tiemoue Bakayoko now seems to be out of Stefano Pioli’s plans.
According to what is being reported by journalist Rudy Galetti on Twitter, Bakayoko is no longer playing not only due to his poor performances when called upon by Pioli, but above all because of a stipulation in his loan deal from Chelsea.
Bakayoko rejoined Milan in the summer via the formula of a two-year loan with option to buy but so far he has struggled to show that he can provide reliable depth and cover, having made some mistakes and overall just not finding the right rhythm.
The journalist adds that the option to buy can actually become an obligation to buy, and it is linked to the number of appearances that the former Monaco man makes. At the moment Milan don’t want to keep the player, so they are not playing him.
