Valencia striker Batshuayi wants Chelsea return: I love them

Valencia striker Michy Batshuayi insists he sees his future at parent club Chelsea.

The Belgium international was shipped out on loan to the La Liga outfit, where he has made seven appearances, after finding himself down the pecking order under new boss Maurizio Sarri.

Despite being out of the picture at Stamford Bridge, Batshuayi plans to come back to London and fight for his place when his time at the Mestalla is over.

“No [I'm not looking for a permanent move]. I've so much respect for Chelsea and I love them," he told The Times.

“This loan is important for my development, to show how good I am so that I can go back to Chelsea a better player."
