Milan midfielder Tiemoué Bakayoko has reportedly returned to training and should be available for the match against FC Porto in the Champions League.
The Rossoneri picked up Bakayoko on a two-year loan with an obligation to buy with conditions and the 27-year-old returned to San Siro after a season with Napoli.
The French midfielder spent 2018-19 with Milan under Gennaro Gattuso and reunited with the former coach at the Partenopei last term.
He has played once in Serie A with the Diavolo this term, but suffered a injury in the match against Lazio.
MilanNews reports Bakayoko is back in training with the rest of the group and thus available for the away game against Porto in the Champions League.
Milan are still unbeaten in Serie A this term, securing an incredible 3-2 comeback win over Hellas Verona last time, but are yet to pick up points in the Champions League.
It ended in a 3-2 defeat to Liverpool, while Atletico Madrid turned the game around to win 2-1 against coach Stefano Pioli’s 10-men at San Siro.

Ok… but if he’s gonna play like he did in his one appearance so far, he can stay on the bench. Hopefully he gets good soon.
At least our midfield is complete and all healthy now. They just need match fitness.
