Borussia Dortmund target Batshuayi as Aubameyang replacement

With Borussia Dortmund about to sell Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Arsenal, the German side would like to replace him with out of favour Chelsea star Michy Batshuayi, according to BILD.

The Belgian has seen very limited game-time so far this season and so a move away would be a good solution for him to gain minutes ahead of the World Cup which starts in June.

He has started just the two games so far this season in the Premier League with current boss Antonio Conte being reluctant to give him opportunities, despite fellow forward Alvaro Morata misfiring at times during the campaign.

The 24-year-old has scored a number of important goals for the Blues since joining the club in 2016, such as the title winning goal last season, but it now seems that he is surpluss to requirements and he could find himself in Germany if Dortmund get their way.
