Borussia Dortmund will bid to sign Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi at the end of this season.

The Daily Mail says the Bundesliga side took the Belgian on a six-month loan on transfer deadline day after Chelsea rejected their proposal to sign him outright.

Dortmund will try again in the summer though the stance of Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich indicates Batshuayi may have greater opportunities after the World Cup.

The Blues paid in excess of £30million to sign Batshuayi from Marseille in 2016 but he has struggled to get ahead in Antonio Conte's pecking order with Diego Costa and then Alvaro Morata preferred.
