Leeds, Newcastle turn to Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi

Leeds United are eyeing Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi.

Journalist Sacha Tavolieri is reporting the Whites and Newcastle United are in the race with Chelsea seeking a permanent sale.

Reports indicated earlier in the window that Everton was Batshuayi's most likely destination, but Tavolieri says that is no longer the case as the Belgian does not suit Frank Lampard's style.

Leeds and Newcastle remain vigilant in the market over potential striker opportunities.
