Manchester United do not want to sign Chelsea target Tiemoue Bakayoko and have not submitted a bid for the Monaco midfielder.
Express Sport has claimed that the Blues are finally ready to sign the Monaco midfielder.
The news has been confirmed by Sky Sports who reported that the 22-year-old will have his medical with the Blues later on this week.
He will become Antonio Conte's third summer signing after Willy Caballero and Antonio Rudiger.
Bakayoko has a market transfer value of £40million, a fee that the Blues are ready to pay.
He will not be Chelsea's last summer signing, the Londoners are eager to add at least two strikers before the end of the summer transfer window.
Swansea City's Fernando Llorente and Real Madrid's Alvaro Morata have both been linked.
