Bakayoko and Drinkwater out at Chelsea
Frank Lampard is prepared to cut ties with underperforming midfielders Tiemoue Bakayoko and Danny Drinkwater before the new season.
Neither player appeared for the Blues last season, with Drinkwater frozen out and Bakayoko loaned to AC Milan. Despite their transfer ban new boss Lampard believes Chelsea are well-stocked in the middle of the park and sees no future for the pair, says The Daily Mail.
