Everton are allegedly keen on signing the Chelsea hitman.
According to a report from the Mirror, Everton are interested in signing Chelsea hitman Michy Batshuayi this month, and they would need to pay just £14 million to secure his services.
Toffees boss Marco Silva will be desperate to add an out-and-out number nine to his ranks at Goodison Park this month, and the Belgian could be just the man for the job.
Batshuayi’s loan spell with Valencia has been cut short, and he will return to Chelsea, although the Blues want to ship him out immediately on a permanent basis, according to the Mirror.
The British tabloid claims that Silva is keen to bring the 25-year-old to Everton, although he will face competition from the likes of Premier League sides Crystal Palace and Fulham and Ligue 1 outfit Marseille.
Batshuayi possesses blistering pace, and he would certainly offer the Toffees something entirely different to their current options through the middle.
And in today’s day and age, £14 million for a player with the 22-capped Belgium international’s calibre would surely have to be considered as excellent value for money.
