Premier League team Crystal Palace is keen on signing Chelsea
attacker Michy Batshuayi at the end of the current season as they aim to
add more firepower to their attack.
Batshuayi spent the second half of the last season with Crystal
Palace but went back to Chelsea at the start of the season but he found
his game time extremely limited under manager Frank Lampard at the
Stamford Bridge.
Crystal Palace wanted to seal a permanent move for the Belgian
attacker at the end of the season but the Eagles were unable to match
the price tag placed on the Belgian attacker.
The report in The Sun says Batshuayi is keen on remaining in London if he departs the Blues.
With the 26-year-old entering the last year of his deal, Palace will
be hoping to sign him for far less than the £45m they were quoted in
January.
The striker wants more game time and he could depart Chelsea at the
end of the season in search of game time as he has dropped in the
pecking order with Lampard favouring Tammy Abraham and Olivier Giroud
ahead of the former Valencia and Marseille attacker.
