Batshuayi wants Chelsea return

Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi says he has no intention of joining Valencia on a permanent basis when his loan comes to an end.

The Belgium striker is currently on loan at the club after spending the second half of last season in the Bundesliga with Borussia Dortmund.

Despite again being sent out elsewhere to gain regular football, Batshuayi still sees London as the place he wants to be and has no intention of staying in Spain.

The 24-year-old has not given up hope of making the grade at Stamford Bridge and when asked if there was a chance he could stay in Spain on a permanent basis, he said: “No. I’ve so much respect for Chelsea and I love them.

“This loan is important for my development, to show how good I am so that I can go back to Chelsea a better player.”

Batshuayi also admitted he has had no contact with his parent club since arriving in Spain.

“I haven’t spoken to them, not at all,” he added.
