Bakayoko could be playing for Chelsea next season — but it's actually good news (reliability: 4 stars)

Chelsea are among the clubs interested in signing Johan Bakayoko, as per Patrick Berger of Sky Germany.

Although they share the same last name, the 20-year-old winger is not related to former Stamford Bridge midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko.

The Belgium international has emerged as a key player at PSV this season and the Dutch side are expected to demand up to €60 million for his signature in the summer.

Liverpool, Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain and Borussia Dortmund are also said to 'monitor the situation'. Bakayoko is contract until the end of the 2026/27 campaign without a release clause.
