​Lampard decides to sell Chelsea flops Drinkwater & Bakayoko

Chelsea boss Frank Lampard is calling time on the Blues careers of two players.

The recently appointed boss does not see Tiemoue Bakayoko or Danny Drinkwater as members of his first team for the coming season.

The Daily Mailsays the duo are not needed, which means they could move on loan or permanently before the closing of the transfer window.

Signed for a combined £75 million, neither player has come close to showing the necessary quality to command a consistent first team starting place.

Bakayoko was at AC Milan on loan last season, but a return seems unlikely.
