Tiemoué Bakayoko is even closer to Milan. Today, at the club's Rossonero club, a market meeting with the brother-agent of the French Chelsea midfielder, the intermediary Pastorello and the Leonardo-Maldini couple. It is based on a loan with a right of redemption set between € 30 and € 35 million, while the agreement on lending is to be filed (in England Bakayoko earns € 6.9 million a year).
The acceleration is also explained by the imminent arrival of Mateo Kovacic at the Blues. An extra midfielder for Maurizio Sarri, after the already landed Jorginho, and then a place to be released in London. Milan is ready to take this opportunity and give Gattuso the physical median he has been asking for some time.
Leonardo and Maldini close to the blow: the midfielder would be on loan with a right of redemption set at 30-35 million
