Batshuayi to Roma?

Batshuayi to Roma?

Roma are interested in Tottenham, Liverpool and Juventus target Michy Batshuayi and have been watching him since his Standard Liege days.

The 22-year-old (23 in October) has options to choose from and is just one of the strikers on our list. The press does like to suggest we are trying to buy everyone, when in fact we watch players, discuss possibilities and only if we are all in the same ball-park over figures do we get serious.

It seems Batshuayi's former manager and Pochettino mentor Marcelo Bielsa has been hawking the striker around Europe, even though he hasn't been his manager since he resigned after one league game this season. If the French newspapers are right he sent tapes of the striker to Pochettino and has sent the same to Roma as well as other clubs.

The Italians are said to be willing to offload 30-year-old former Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko to make way for him and raise some capital. He has only managed 8 goals in 29 Serie A games qhile Batshuayi is younger and has been scoring regularly for Olympique Marseille in Ligue 1.
