Monaco midfielder Bakayoko is at the centre of a transfer tug of war between United and Chelsea, with the Red Devils threatening to hijack the Blues’ £35million move for the 22-year-old.
Bakayoko seemed set to arrive at Stamford Bridge last month but a move was delayed after the France international required keyhole surgery at the end of last season.
Some reports claimed personal terms had been agreed but United have swooped in with a late bid and will reportedly match Monaco’s £40m valuation of the player.
Meanwhile, Bakayoko posted a picture of himself next to a private plane on Monday, teasingly captioned “Lets go… Have a good week #HappyMonday #TB14”.
This has led both Chelsea and Manchester United fans to speculate on where the Monaco ace was heading.
