Chelsea are prepared to sell Michy Batshuayi this summer.

The Sun says the Blues will slash the asking price on Batshuayi in a desperate bid to avoid losing the striker for nothing.

Stamford Bridge chiefs wanted £40million for the Belgian in the January window and that was his peak valuation as the cost will drop in the summer.

But noises coming from the 26-year-old's camp suggest he will run down his deal in London and look to cash in personally when it expires in 2021.

Batshuayi could then get a big-money contract in China or the Middle East as a free agent.

And that is going to mean Chelsea have to wait for him to walk out of the door for nothing, unless they substantially cut his valuation before then.
