Chelsea striker Batshuayi happy BVB eager to buy

Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi favours a permanent move to Borussia Dortmund, it has been revealed.

Batshuayi's successful loan in Dortmund was halted abruptly last week after suffering a serious ankle injury.

This week, BVB chief Hans-Joachim Watzke has declared they're keen to buy the striker outright - and Chelsea have set their asking price.

The Blues are demanding €57m to sell Batshuayi this summer.

And for his part, Batshuayi has made it clear to BVB that he'd welcome a permanent return - knowing Alvaro Morata and Olivier Giroud are ahead of him on the striker's pecking order at Chelsea.
