Arsenal boss Emery ponders move for Chelsea midfielder Bakayoko

Arsenal boss Unai Emery is exploring the prospect of ferrying Tiemoue Bakayoko away from Chelsea.

The midfielder suffered a disastrous first season at Stamford Bridge after his £40m transfer from Monaco.

He was subsequently unwanted by former Blues boss Maurizio Sarri, who sent the Frenchman on loan to AC Milan.

And it seems Bakayoko has won some admirers, despite an inconsistent season under Gennarro Gattuso at the San Siro.

RMC Sport says Emery appreciates the 24-year-old's talents. Chelsea want £30m to sell.
