Chelsea, Manchester United 'battle for Tiemoue Bakayoko'

By , Football Editor
A report claims that Chelsea and Manchester United will go head to head for the signature of £40m-rated AS Monaco midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko.

Chelsea and Manchester United will reportedly go head to head for the signature of AS Monaco midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko.

Bakayoko joined Monaco from Rennes in 2014 and has already made 20 appearances for the Ligue 1 side this season, including five in the Champions League.

In September, the midfielder's agent Michel Boli claimed that Man United were among five clubs that wanted to sign the 22-year-old, who has represented France's Under-21 team on 13 occasions.

According to The Times, Man United are very much in the hunt for the £40m-rated midfielder, but will face competition from Chelsea as the Blues prepare to replace outgoing Brazilian Oscar.

Juventus have also previously been credited with an interest in the powerful midfielder.
