The Belgium international is back at Stamford Bridge after a failed loan at Valencia, having also been loaned out to Borussia Dortmund last season.

Despite showing some promise, Batshuayi has never established himself as a regular at Chelsea an exit for him now makes sense.
However, it’s also unsurprising that the Blues don’t want to allow a potentially lethal forward to strengthen a top four rival between now and May.
Spurs need cover for Harry Kane up front and Batshuayi could be a very decent option in the short term.
