Mourinho pushes Man Utd to beat Chelsea for Bakayoko

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has placed Monaco ace Tiemoue Bakayoko high on his shopping list.

The Times says Bakayoko is on Manchester United's summer transfer shortlist.

Reports in France suggest Chelsea and Manchester City have already made approaches for the 22-year-old.

Bakayoko has starred for Monaco this season, helping them to the Ligue 1 summit.

Monaco chiefs wish to keep Bakayoko on their books but are reportedly open to a sale if they receive offers in excess of £25.5m (€30m).
