Crystal Palace are ready to offer Chelsea misfit Michy Batshuayi a way out of Stamford Bridge in the summer. Belgium striker Batshuayi has started only five games all season for Frank Lampard’s team, with the rest of his 19 appearances coming off the bench.

Arsenal warned about £52m target who is ‘better' than Chelsea star

Batshuayi, 26, was left on the bench again on Sunday as Chelsea thrashed Everton 4-0, with Lampard preferring to give 18 year old Armando Broja a run out instead.

The Belgian spent six months on loan at Palace last season, scoring five goals in 11 games - and the Selhurst Park club are interested in a prominent move this summer.

Chelsea, though, wanted £45 million for Batshuayi, who they signed for £34m in July 2016 from Marseille, when Palace inquired in January.
