United Set to miss out on Midfield Target

Manchester United`s interest in the Monaco midfielder, Tiemoue Bakayoko, looks to have ended in disappointment.

According to several media vehicles, including, Metro, the midfielder looks bound for Stamford Bridge and Chelsea.

Our referenced source is confidently championing the suggestion that the 22-year-old, who has sprung to prominence this season playing for a free-scoring Monaco, a side who had the audacity to stand up to big-spending Manchester City and knock them out of the Champions League, has agreed terms with the runaway leaders of the Premier League.

The very same reports suggest that Bakayoko will join Mourinho`s old club, in the summer, with a fee, said to be of the magnitude of £35 million, exchanging hands.

Hopefully, with a couple of young Monaco players set to be moving on this summer, Manchester United can lead the pack when it comes to the pursuit of their exciting forward Kylian Mbappe.

Losing one is careless, losing a second would be unforgiveable!
