Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko is reportedly attracting interest from Serie A side Monza, although they could face competition from Premier League teams Newcastle and Nottingham Forest for his signature.
The Frenchman, who is currently halfway through a two-year loan spell with AC Milan, has fallen out of favour at the San Siro and manager Stefano Pioli is now keen to part ways and get his wages off their books.
Newly-promoted Monza are leading the race to sign Bakayoko after his agent and Milan directors Maldini and Massara discussed their options in a recent meeting, according to Sky Italy.
