Batshuayi is currently enjoying a positive spell in Germany on loan with Peter Stoger’s side but was left infuriated by sections of Atalanta fans, who are claimed to have made monkey noises towards him in the second leg of their round of 32 clash in the Europa League.
As reported by Goal, it’s been confirmed that Atalanta have been formally charged following their fans’ conduct in the game, which Dortmund ultimately came out as victors in with a 4-3 scoreline on aggregate.
Batshuayi will hope that he can put this incident behind him as he aims to continue impressing with Dortmund until the end of the season.
