Chelsea are looking to settle striker Michy Batshuayi’s long-term future in January, and reports suggest he has already been offered to Crystal Palace.
The Belgium international forward is currently on loan with Valencia in Spain’s La Liga, his second consecutive loan spell away from Stamford Bridge.
The 25-year joined Borussia Dortmund in January, spending the final six months of the season with the Black and Yellows, scoring nine goals in 14 appearances across all competitions for the club.
Despite this summer’s change of managerial staff at Chelsea, with Maurizio Sarri replacing Antonio Conte, Batshuayi once again found himself surplus to requirements, and subsequently moved to the Mestella, where he has found the net three times in 18 games.
Now however, Chelsea are considering cutting the season-long loan agreement short in order to sort out Batshuayi’s long-term future, with the Blues likely to find a new permanent home for the former Marseille man.
And according to Belgian source HLN, as reported by MailOnline, Batshuayi has already been offered to Crystal Palace.
The Eagles are in desperate need of striking reinforcements, with the misfiring Christian Benteke’s current injury putting too much pressure on Wilfried Zaha’s shoulders.
However, Roy Hodgson’s men will face fierce competitions for the Belgian’s signature if reports are to be believed, with Monaco, Roma and Milan all said to be interested too.
