I think Im most like this type of player.I just want to thank the fans for their confidence in me. We need them to finish in the top [four] places.2

After taking time to adjust to Italian football, Bakayoko has won over Milan supporters.He added: I think all the fans have changed their mind about me and Im happy about that.Im very happy, the team are playing well and improved a lot. I think the last three or four games, teams havent scored against us and I think we need to keep going, but Im very happy to be here, to finish the season well. Im happy in this period and Im playing well. Im very humble, if Im here its because the team are playing very well.I always try to improve. Im here for just six months but I think after nine months Ill be better with the team.We just have to work and improve in every training session and match.Bakayoko also revealed he’d love to make his stay in Serie A permanent.Staying at Milan is my dream, thats the only thought in my mind, but I have a contract with Chelsea,” he said. “I just want to finish the season in fourth place, then well think about it.
