Arsenal to move for Michy Batshuayi?

Arsenal could make a January transfer move for Marseille and Belgium striker Michy Batshuayi, a report claims.

The 21-year-old, allegedly valued at £22m, is reportedly on the transfer window shopping list of a number of European clubs.

According to the Metro, Arsene Wenger is lining up a bid for the forward following comments made by the player's agent Vincent Labrune.

"Marseille fans should not get too attached to players because they could not go on forever at the Velodrome," Labrune told French publication L'Equipe.

Batshuayi, who has scored three times and provided two assists in six Ligue 1 appearances this season, played the full 90 minutes of Marseille's 1-1 draw with Lyon on Sunday.
