Agent: €45m Chelsea target 'wants PSG move'
“We’ve talked about it because Tiémoué is Parisian,” his brother/agent revealed to RMC, “when he was young, he wanted to go to PSG. He’s always dreamed of moving there.”
Starsport had written recently that Chelsea already had nabbed some sort of pre-contract agreement with Monaco to sign the 22-year-old for €45 million.
The Bakayoko clan’s version of the facts is rather different:
“When I asked him to imagine that he’d move to PSG one day, he told me that he’d ‘honestly like that. If they were to offer me a deal, I don’t see why I would refuse it.’
“He also added: ‘I have time. If I have to go to PSG I’ll go, that’s all.’”
The 22-year-old has played 37 games for Monaco this season, and was recently called up for the first time to play for his country after Paul Pogba fell to injury.
