Chelsea boss, Frank Lampard has reportedly told midfielder, Tiemoue Bakayoko his services will be required at Stamford Bridge this season, according to Daily Mail.
Lampard restricted to naming 17 overseas players in his Premier League squad.
The player is now set to leave Stamford Bridge for a return to Monaco, his former club.
Monaco want to take their former player back on loan after the midfielder failed to meet the expectations at Stamford Bridge.
The European transfer window remains open until September 2, meaning that a number of Premier League players could still find themselves on the move within the next few weeks.
Bakayoko spent last season on loan with Italian giants AC Milan.
The defensive midfielder has been deemed surplus to requirements by Blues hierarchy.
Monaco are understood to be pondering a loan deal ahead of the September 2 deadline.
