Tottenham target Batshuayi will not leave Marseille this winter

Tottenham have been dealt a blow in their pursuit of Marseille striker Michy Batshuayi.

The Daily Mirror reports that the Belgian striker has decided to shelve any potential move away from Marseille until the summer as he wants to concentrate on securing his place in the Belgium squad for Euro2016.

The 22-year-old, who has scored 14 goals in 23 games this term, doesn't want to give up the security of regular first team football so close to the summer tournament and will forego any potential January move.
