Batshuayi still set for Chelsea exit

The Mirror understand that Chelsea could still be set to sell Michy Batshuayi this summer, despite him scoring the goal that clinched the Premier League title.

That strike was only his second since securing a £33m switch from Marseille last July, though he is yet to start a game in the Premier League with Diego Costa very much Antonio Conte’s main man.

West Ham United were in the running to sign the Belgium international last summer and remain interested while Marseille may take him back to the Stade Velodrome.

Monaco, who are a point away from winning the Ligue One title are also on the lookout for potential replacements for Kylian Mbappe who has been strongly linked with a move away.

Batshuayi could however be handed his first Premier League start as the champions host Watford on Monday evening and he can be backed at 4.0 (3/1) to score first.
