AC Milan have gone cold on Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko.

Gazzetta dello Sport says Milan's interest in Bakayoko has cooled after the Blues are said to have triggered a 12-month extension in the outcast's contract.

Bakayoko's deal was due to end in the summer of 2022 but Chelsea have activated the clause to maintain his sell-on value.

Milan could still bring him to the San Siro having spent the 2018-19 season with the Rossoneri, but a move to the north of Italy is now less likely.
