West Ham United are emerging as favourites to land Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko.
RMC says West Ham are leading the race for Bakayoko.
The Hammers are closing in on a deal for Bayoko, who has struggled since moving to Stamford Bridge in 2017. He has made just 24 Premier League starts in that time and has since been out on loan to AC Milan and Monaco.
But Monaco, who initially sold the 25-year-old to Chelsea, are not willing to sign him back permanently, paving the way for West Ham to strike a deal.
The Blues will demand around £20million for the midfielder.
