Chelsea confident of signing Tiemoue Bakayoko despite PSG's £45m bid for Monaco midfielder Fabinho

Chelsea’s pursuit of Tiemoue Bakayoko faces the threat of further disruption with Monaco prepared to consider the option of selling midfield partner Fabinho instead.

Paris Saint-Germain have offered £45million for the Brazilian although Monaco are not keen to sell to their wealthy domestic rivals.

Atletico Madrid have bid £40m to sign Fabinho now with a view to a move in January when their transfer ban has ended.
