Chelsea are very confident they will sign Tiemoue Bakayoko despite interest from Manchester United.
The Old Trafford side considered hijacking the deal for the 22-year-old Monaco midfielder - who teased fans with a photo of himself jetting off on Monday - by offering more than Chelsea, who have been chasing Bakayoko all summer.
They suggested they were willing to pay more than £40million for the France international while Chelsea were reluctant to up their offer of £37m.
