€40m deal with Marseille according L'equipe.

He's having his medical tomorrow apparently and will sign on a five year deal.

Hopefully he turns out as well as the last striker we signed from Marseille.

Interesting scored a good goal against Slovakia.

Has scored 26 goals in 62 appearances for Marseille

Interesting

 
#OM striker Michy Batshuayi has signed for Chelsea for 40 million Euros (via @ladh) #CFC #OM

 
33 million pounds quite steep but hope he is a success

 
This one looks to be done.

Conte obviously saw Belgium's second goal against Hungary and was impressed albeit he nearly missed from two yards, lol!

 
Just googled him, and The Guardian is saying Palace have signed him, and the Mail and Independent saying Spuds have signed him, with Sky saying West Ham are closing in on him.

Anyway, if true, interesting we're signing a young Belgian striker for almost the same amount as we sold our own, more prolific, young Belgian striker.

Progress eh?

Also, would a big money striker coming in suggest that we're going to play a 3-5-2?

The Spuds fans on fighting cock already nick named him batman.. they thought they had him :@) That nick name is going to change :@)

 
Sounds like bo**ocks, multiple different sources saying he signed for Spuds, Palace and Chelsea within a few days? 

Also can he even have a medical with us right now when he's playing in a tournament?

 
Fighting cock...

"So much for wanting CL Footy. Well, Batsh*te can go screw himself."

Ha ha...

 
Just a side note here.

Pretty sure he's left footed, however, in his highlight videos he takes penalties with his right foot. If this is in fact true, at least he could bring some versatility to the front line.

 
Have to admit,i wasnt wanting to sign morata for 60m+ but almost the same age at batshuayi, i definately would have prefered morata,

 
Blimey, this came out of nowhere didn't it?

I know almost nothing about him except for his sub appearance for Belgium the other night...

 
Looks good player fit in well and hopefully have good connection with Hazard already so hopefully do well for us

 
Apparently Marseille have an upcoming transfer embargo starting July 5th so any deal would need to be completed soon.

Looks like it just might happen

 
He ha signed for 3 clubs in the last 2 days if you believe the press
