Batshuayi staying at Chelsea ―Lampard

Frank Lampard has admitted that Davide Zappacosta and Tiemoue Bakayoko could leave Chelsea but Michy Batshuayi remains a part of his plans.

The Belgian was on loan at Crystal Palace last season and looks to be behind Olivier Giroud and Tammy Abraham in the pecking order at Stamford Bridge.

Linked with a move away, Lampard says Batshuayi is going nowhere.

He said: “The future is Michy is here as one of our strikers. We have three strikers this year and there will be opportunities for him.

“With Michy it’s important that he trains at a top, top level every day, gets himself absolutely fit to play the way I want my strikers to play, which will be constant movement – on and off the ball – and obviously to try and score goals.

“He’s very much our player and competing with Tammy and Ollie for that space.”
