Tiemoue Bakayoko has followed through on his promise to unveil a new hairstyle after his first Premier League goal.

The midfielder joined the Blues from Monaco for £40m in the summer, and vowed to mark his first league goal for his new club by dying his hair blue.

Now, after scoring for Chelsea in their 2-1 defeat to Crystal Palace, Bakayoko has revealed his new look - just in time for Chelsea's trip to Bournemouth on Saturday.

Speaking before he scored at Selhurst Park, Bakayoko 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."
