Imminent Chelsea signing Michy Batshuayi has posted a farewell message to Olympique Marseille fans.

The Belgium striker, 22, has been linked with a £33million move to Stamford Bridge after two successful years at the Stade Velodrome.

Without confirming his destination, he wrote in a post on his Twitter feed on Saturday evening: "It will be made official tomorrow, I will be leaving Olympique Marseille this summer."

Batshuayi wrote: "Above all, I particularly want to thank all the supporters of OM: during my two years with the club I have loved since I was young, you have shown me your affection and support.

"It's a big honour for me to have worn this jersey at the Velodrome, a stadium which you have made magnificent with an atmosphere which is unique in France.

"I thank the directors of Olympique de Marseille for having confidence in me and the coaching staff who have helped me progress.

"Having developed for a season under coach (Marcelo) Bielsa was a privilege and I would love to achieve what he has wished for me in the remainder of my career.

"Thanks also to coach Franck Passi for having supported and advised me since my arrival at Marseille, and my team-mates for these two seasons.

"I hope I can keep making you proud with my new club, and will continue to follow closely the results of OM. I hope the club can recover the results they deserve."
