Chelsea are reportedly willing to offload Belgium international striker Michy Batshuayi this summer, according to the Mirror.

The Premier League side, who were crowned 2016-17 top-flight champions last Friday after their hard fought 1-0 win at West Bromwich Albion, are looking to offload the forward after just one term at Stamford Bridge.

The 23-year-old, who has nine international caps for his country, has scored just six goals and provided three assists in 25 appearances in all competitions for The Blues so far this season.

Batshuayi, who has failed to start a single Premier League fixture this season, has struggled to nail down a starting spot under boss Antonio Conte following his £33m transfer from Ligue 1 outfit Marseille last summer.

Chelsea’s Michy Batshuayi.

Despite netting the only goal of the game at The Hawthorns last Friday – the strike that sealed the title for Chelsea – the report suggests the Belgian star could be on his way out of Stamford Bridge, less than a year after his arrival.

It is thought the likes of West Ham United, AS Monaco and former club Marseille are interested in snapping up the striker’s services already.
