However, it is unlikely to be enough as Bayern want a great deal more than that – close to £53m, according to journalist Pipe Sierra via Twitter.

Conte could do with more options in the middle of the park at the moment after losing Nemanja Matic to Manchester United in the summer, and with new signings Tiemoue Bakayoko and Danny Drinkwater failing to impress on a consistent basis.
Vidal looks like he’d be a significant upgrade in that part of the pitch, and Conte himself has been full of praise for the Chilean in the past.
