Chelsea striker Batshuayi involved in Twitter feud

Michy Batshuayi has been involved in a Twitter spat with The Chelsea Daily.

The news site posted a story about the Blues striker's sexuality, claiming Batshuayi was 'set to become the first openly gay footballer in the Premier League.'

The Belgian answered back by saying: “bro even your mother knows thats false."

Batshuayi's tweet was liked over 17,000 times and retweeted by 12,000 people.

The Chelsea Daily later back tracked, responding: “It appears our journalistic integrity has been compromised again. Not happy. Resources have let us down AGAIN."
