The impressive XI of players out on loan from Chelsea

Tiemoue Bakayoko (AC Milan)

Bakayoko failed to settle at Stamford Bridge last season

Last season was a very forgettable one for Bakayoko. He joined Chelsea in a deal worth £40 million, but looked totally out of his depth at Stamford Bridge, and never held down a place in the starting XI. He is now spending this season out on loan at AC Milan, who have paid £4.5 million for his services, and will have the option to make this move permanent at the end of the season for £35 million.

Mason Mount (Derby County)

There is a lot of talk about Mount at the moment, and rightly so. The 19-year-old was excellent on loan at Vitesse last year, scoring 14 goals in 39 games in all competitions. This was enough for him to earn a move to Championship side Derby County this season. He couldn’t be under a better manager to learn his trade from, with former manager Frank Lampard in charge at Pride Park, and Mount has attributes very similar to that of the former Blues midfielder.
