Antonio Conte set to loan out Chelsea striker in January

Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is set to release Michy Batshuayi in January in a loan deal in January according to reports.
Batshuayi was sparingly used by Conte last season and the summer signing of Alvaro Morata has seen him dropped in the pecking order at the Stamford Bridge.
According to The Sun , Conte has informed Batshuayi that he can join another club on a temporary deal for the remainder of the campaign.
It was also stated in the report that Conte will look for a replacement so that he won’t be short of options in the attack.
The Belgian joined from Marseille last season but failed to leave up to the expectations and his foot injury in October offered no help to him but he made a timely return for Chelsea in the 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid in Champions League.
Chelsea suffered a shock defeat on Saturday against West Ham which has forced Conte to re-evaluate his team and see if he will need additions in the winter market.
