Tiemoue Bakayoko says he is not afraid of the increase in competition for places at Chelsea if Leicester City midfielder Danny Drinkwater arrives.
Chelsea have reportedly upped their offer to £32 million for Drinkwater as they seek to give their squad greater strength in depth with both a domestic and European challenge to face this season.
Drinkwater formed an effective partnership with N'Golo Kante as Leicester won the Premier League title in 2015-16, and would be reunited with his former teammate at Stamford Bridge.
But Bakayoko, a summer arrival from Monaco, says the England international's addition would be positive for both Antonio Conte's team and even himself.
