Romano: Chelsea midfielder wants Milan move; PSG confident of Kouassi renewal

AC Milan look set to miss out on the signing of a teenage centre-back, a journalist has claimed, while Tiemoue Bakayoko is pushing for a return to the club.

Fabrizio Romano answered questions from fans of various clubs for Calciomercato.com during a Q&A on Saturday, and he began by discussing the chances of Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko ending up back at Milan.

The journalist confirms that the 25-year-old would return to Milan in a heartbeat, but that to date there have been no real negotiations regarding a return to San Siro.

Romano was also asked about Paris Saint-Germain defender Tanguy Kouassi, a player who multiple outlets are reporting is a major target for Milan.

He reports that PSG tabled a renewal offer some time ago and are convinced that the player will accept. There are no signatures yet, but the Ligue 1 giants are confident regarding locking down his long-term future.
