The young striker made the move to Chelsea for a lofty £33 million from Marseille last summer. Batshuayi has failed to start a single game for the Blues since his move.

Turkish-Football previous reported that Turkish giants Galatasaray are also interested in Batshuayi.

The 23-year-old was recently filmed playing in-door football with a Galatasaray shirt on.

Batshuayi has managed to score just one League goal since his big money move from Ligue 1.

Galatasaray are on the lookout for a new striker following the departure of Kolbeinn Sigþórsson over the January transfer window. Lukas Podolski has also agreed a move away from the club this summer.
