"If the player had a choice he would go to Bayern,” he said.

"We may see some developments on this story in the coming days due to the arrival of Gonzalo Higuain and the need to balance the books.

“I’m expecting a busy last few days at Chelsea."

Meanwhile, former Arsenal star Ray Parlour thinks that the Chelsea starlet would be a good buy for £35 million and that the Blues would try to do anything to keep him.

"I think he would be a snip at £35m, he's got potential and he would be well worth the money,” Parlour said.

“I would definitely try to tie him down and keep him at Chelsea."

Finally, former Manchester United Andy Cole forward thinks that the Bavarian’s have guaranteed playing minutes to the youngster, which is why he is so keen on moving.

"Bayern have come in for him for a reason.

“They will give him games as they think he's more than good enough, which is more than at Chelsea because they want instant success. Kids get left behind, and he wants game time."

“Yes [Tottenham would suit him],” Mariner said. “I like this lad a lot. I think they [PSG] do need to keep him but I don’t think they can or will keep him.

“I think there will be other suitors as well. I think he’s already made his mind up that he wants to leave PSG. So I’m going to say for him, yep, it’s going to happen [to Tottenham].”
