Belgian journalist Tavolieri reports that Die Werkself are in talks with PSV Eindhoven to close a deal for a move costing around €20 million, with Bakayoko having already agreed terms on a five-year contract with the club.
The electric winger had a quieter campaign last term, registering nine goals and one assist in the Eredivisie; however, he scored 12 and assisted nine the year prior.
Long seen as one of the best young talents in Belgium, the winger is reportedly set to join up with Erik ten Hag as Bayer Leverkusen prepare for a new era under the Dutch manager.
