Dortmund, Chelsea hold Batshuayi talks?

Borussia Dortmund are reportedly holding talks with Chelsea regarding the permanent transfer of frontman Michy Batshuayi to the Bundesliga club.

Batshuayi moved to BVB on loan during the January transfer window and was able to bag nine goals in 14 matches, before picking up an injury that cut short his season in Germany.

According to the Daily Mail, Batshuayi would be keen on a move to the Bundesliga but wants to make a decision on his future after the looming World Cup in Russia.

The same report suggests that Chelsea want at least £50m for the Belgian forward, although it is thought that the Blues could also look to use the 24-year-old as leverage to help lure American wonderkid Christian Pulisic to the Premier League.

Chelsea signed Batshuayi for a fee of £35m from Marseille in the summer of 2016.
