Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko is on his way back to AS Monaco.
Bakayoko has agreed terms for rejoining Monaco on loan - with a £31.8million permanent switch lined up.
The Blues are reportedly "close" to accepting the £40million France midfielder's return to his former club.
RMC Sport's Mohamed Bouhafsi suggested the 25-year-old is expected back at Monaco before the September 2 transfer deadline.
