AC Milan are said to be keen on securing the services of club's former midfielder Tiémoué Bakayoko, who has made his return to the European champions Chelsea after spending a loan spell with fellow Serie A club Napoli during the last season.
Yet, according to the latest information provided by Football London, the homegrown players and returning loanees, including Bakayoko, are 'expected to be given opportunities to impress' the Blues' head coach Thomas Tuchel during the pre-season.
In fact, the German boss will base his decisions on the player's efforts in training sessions and pre-season games, as learned by the aforementioned source.
