Chelsea forward Michy Batshuayi is reportedly free to leave Stamford Bridge this season, with the club hoping to receive a fee in excess of £10m for the Belgian.

Chelsea attacker Michy Batshuayi has reportedly been told that he is free to leave Stamford Bridge this summer, having spent the season on loan at Crystal Palace.

The Belgium international only managed two goals and as many assists in 18 Premier League appearances for Roy Hodgson's side during the just-completed campaign.

After arriving in London from Marseille for £33.2m in 2016, Batshuayi never managed to establish himself as a regular in the Chelsea team and that resulted in him embarking on loan moves to Borussia Dortmund and Valencia before heading to Selhurst Park.

According to football.london, at least one top-half Premier League club is interested in signing Batshuayi, who despite an average season has been selected to represent Belgium at the European Championships this summer.

It is understood that Chelsea will be hoping to receive a fee in excess of £10m for the striker, who is expected to return to Cobham to train with Thomas Tuchel's side after the Euros are concluded.

The 27-year-old has scored 25 goals in 77 appearances for Chelsea during the three seasons he was not out on loan.
