Gattuso reveals how Bakayoko has improved

AC Milan manager Rino Gattuso has revealed that Tiemoue Bakayoko has improved over the past few weeks and his progressing has been pleasing.

Milan picked up an important 2-1 win over Parma earlier today as Franck Kessie scored a vital winner towards the end of the game. The win helped the rossoneri establish themselves inside the top four, clear of Lazio in the table.

Following the game, Gattuso was talking to Milan TV, reviewing the game and was asked to assess Bakayoko's progress after the Frenchman played for Milan earlier today.

The Italian said: "Bakayoko? Bakayoko's biggest surprise is his improvement on a tactical level. We knew the physical abilities he has. I like for how he listens, for how he moves.

"You are seeing a Bakayoko who closes more lines of passage, impacts more and pinches forward. It's what he missed earlier, today he does not touch it more than twice, it's an important sign."
