The French defensive midfielder is undergoing a medical and the Premier League champions will splurge £40million plus add-ons for securing the signatures of the 22-year-old Monaco man.

Bakayoko has been keen on joining Antonio Conte at Chelsea and has already followed several Blues stars on Twitter, before using the social media platform to troll Jose Mourinho’s Manchester United.

Earlier reports had claimed that Mourinho was all set to hijack the French midfielder from under the noses of the Blues, but Bakayoko has opted for a switch to Chelsea instead.

Another deleted tweet showed him greeting his followers – but with his location in Manchester.

On Friday morning, Bakayoko played foul with the emotions of the Manchester United fans by tweeting red and white emojis with two love hearts, and his location set in Manchester, to hint that he is set to join the Red Devils, despite him staying in London. But, later he deleted the tweet.

Earlier, on Thursday night, the French star engaged in a conversation with new Blues team-mate Michy Batshuayi on Twitter, answering questions on whether he has already signed a deal with Chelsea.

The teasing conversation involved the use of a lot of emojis and hinted that a move to Chelsea was on the verge of completion.

Bakayoko arrived in London on Thursday and is expected to complete his move to Chelsea on Friday

His arrival at the Stamford Bridge would see Nemanja Matic leaving the club with Manchester United in pole position to rope him in.

It is also understood that Nathaniel Chalobah will be offloaded as Watford have shown huge interest in securing his signatures.

Antonio Rudiger admits he joined Chelsea to play under Antonio Conte.

Conte wants to add reinforcements in key areas before the start of the new season and Bakayoko will now become Chelsea’s second major signing this summer following Antonio Rudiger and a back-up goalkeeper Willy Caballero.
