TIEMOUE BAKAYOKO is dye-ing to score his first Premier League goal for Chelsea and will celebrate in the most colourful way.
Bakayoko, 23, has already scored in the Champions League but is gunning to break his duck in the Premier league against struggling Crystal Palace today.
The fun-loving midfielder said: “As soon as I score a goal I will change the colour of my hair. Possibly to blue. I like changing the colour of my hair from time to time.
“I don’t go completely over the top, but sometimes I find it brings me good luck. Since the Man City game I put some white in my hair.”
Bakayoko claims Chelsea is his dream club after joining the League champions in the summer.
He said: “I’ve always dreamed about playing for certain clubs. Chelsea is one of those.
“Last season I looked out for them, watching and seeing how best I could play with them.
“I really thought they were the team in which I could express myself.
“The chance to work with Antonio Conte was one of the biggest reasons for coming.
"He’s a coach who has always believed in me and followed my progress from his days at Juve. So it’s natural that I would get the chance to play under him.”
