Since his move from Monaco in June 2015, Kondogbia has failed to live up to a hefty €30million fee, and has struggled this season to break into the first team.

Kondogbia, however, was quick to insist he remains loyal to Stefano Pioli's side and only his words should be listened to when it comes to his future.
"The words of [my] agent? I am the player, so you have to listen to me, not other people," he said. "I only talk about my future.
