Michy Batshuayi is a target for Serie A giants AC Milan this summer and the Italians have stepped up their approach for the Belgian striker by reaching out to Chelsea over a loan deal.
The Belgium international spent the last season away from the Blues at Selhurst Park and is currently with Roberto Martinez’s men at the UEFA European Championships where he is yet to open his account in front of the goal.

Turkish journalist Ekrem Konur has claimed that the San Siro outfit are in line to propose a season-long loan offer for Batshuayi who has been backed to call it quits at Stamford Bridge ahead of the next season.
AC Milan will be competing in the Champions League this upcoming season and the Italians have already made major moves in the transfer market by bringing in Fikayo Tomori from Chelsea on a permanent basis.
Thomas Tuchel is not in line to offer significant first-team minutes to Batshuayi next season for Chelsea which could convince both the player as well as the manager that a loan move to AC Milan might be in the interest of all parties involved.
