CHELSEA have released 13 players to kick start their summer purge under Mauricio Pochettino.
And the list has seen £40million flop Tiemoue Bakayoko let go.
Bakayoko signed for Chelsea from Monaco in 2017 but failed to make the grade.
A number of loans followed, including moves back to Monaco and to the Serie A with AC Milan and Napoli.
