Michy Batshuayi dismisses Chelsea exit rumours

Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi dismisses reports of a move away from Stamford Bridge, despite struggling for game time at the club.

Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi has dismissed reports of a move away from Stamford Bridge, despite struggling for game time at the club.

Since joining the Blues from Marseille in the summer, the 23-year-old is yet to start a Premier League game for his new side, and has only played 53 minutes of top-flight football.

As a result, the Belgian has been linked with a number of outfits including Juventus, AC Milan and both Manchester clubs, as well as his former side in France.

However, when asked by a fan on Twitter 'when he would be going to Manchester', he replied that it would be as part of a Chelsea matchday squad only.


Batshuayi's only starts under Antonio Conte have come in the EFL Cup victories over Bristol Rovers and Leicester City.
