After landing Romelu Lukaku, with only the official unveiling to come, Manchester United are apparently about to disappoint Chelsea again.
The Premier League champions are keen on Monaco star Tiemoue Bakayoko but the Daily Star claims Monaco and the Red Devils have agreed a £35m fee for the midfielder.
Chelsea made a failed late dig to return Lukaku to Stamford Bridge before the Belgian called his new home the “biggest team in the world”.
Conte did land a top target on Sunday in German defender Antonio Rudiger after cutting a deal with Roma.
They are also keeping hold of Nemanja Matic, reluctant to bow to United's riches.
