Celtic could receive a big boost from a certain Michy Batshuayi.
Let’s face facts: Celtic are huge underdogs to progress any further in the Europa League.
Brendan Rodgers’s side needed a huge favour in even reaching the knockout phase of the competition, only to be drawn with Spanish giants Valencia in the last 32.
It’s a huge ask for Celtic and one that will probably fail to bear much fruit, as far as probability goes.
The Hoops need all the help that they can get, and one report about a certain £33 million striker [The Guardian] may certainly provide a big boost.
According to The Scottish Sun, Chelsea are set to recall Michy Batshuayi from Valencia.
He hasn’t done brilliantly against Spanish opposition, but that isn’t to say that he wouldn’t inflict serious damage on Rodgers’s troops if he were to face them.
At the end of the day, Batshuayi, who scored seven Bundesliga goals in nine starts for Borussia Dortmund earlier this year, can be a real handful and one who may terrorise Celtic, but not if he isn’t still at the Mestalla come February.
