Confirmed by Sky, deal done - 5 year contract!

 

About time this was wrapped up!! Buzzing!!

sh*t, he's just signed for Man Utd instead.

Jeez my first born came quicker than him...and the misses demanded an epidural for the conception...

Nice, that's another one wrapped up. Just need to concentrate on getting a decent forward now, anything else is a bonus.

Congratz. Great player, very happy we finally sign him.

There was a comparison with him and other midfielder, can someone post it again ?

never in doubt. Great news. hopefully conte turns him into a world class player.

Now our focus should be on a world class striker, at least one wing back and I'd say an extra midfielder. 

That concludes a wild 24 hours

Be good to see Mason Mount get a chance...btw England v Portugal in U19 Championship final starts in a few minutes on Eurosport...I've that channel free on my BT Sports package...

Any brilliantly cringey video yet?

Where is the video??? I can fly from USA and ask for a bakayoko jersey...

After all that...he better be good.

Well, that took what felt like years, now he can have a proper thread. 

 

 

At long last,let's hope he merits the hype. A shiny new striker would be nice now Mr A

That Carabao logo is sooooo Championship. Eugh, can't get Reading shirts out of my head when I see it.

Nevertheless, welcome aboard Baka. Your social media game is strong.

LMAO! Whatever happened to getting an upgrade Moses and Alonso.

To be honest, even if we fail to get Sandro I'd be happy with back ups for them two. I wouldn't put Danilo in ahead of Moses, of course Danilo is more fancy and stylish but Moses has been immense for us last season.

Finally..... welcome to Chelsea baka 

Just a striker, RB and LB left. A new cm could be good but I'd rather we use Mount or Baker

We still need 1 more CM for sure.

Even if Baker stay.

 

Well Mason Mount has two assists in U19 final...England 2 Portugal 1

I think we will get a striker (llorente/benteke/chicharito), an rwb (danilo), keep baba as back lwb. And use baker and/or mount as back up CM if we sell Matic. Or maybe pasalic

I think Matic is on his way out now that we signed Bakayoko unless he tells Conte he wants to stay. Pasalic could be sold since he wasn't included in the preseason squad iirc

I don't like the striking options but I can see why those seem a feasible option at this point
