Tiemoue Bakayoko travelled up to London on Thursday evening, with his medical due on Friday. Chelsea will finally pay £40 million plus add-ons and the Frenchman is expected to be officially announced in the next 24 hours.
The 22-year-old was given a warm welcome as he arrived in London, heading out for dinner to Jinjuu Mayfair with his new teammates David Luiz and Willian.
Manchester United were also linked with a move for the midfielder. On Friday morning, Bakayoko trolled Mourinho's side by tweeting red and white emojis with his location set in Manchester. The tweet was subsequently deleted.
