Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is reportedly planning the sale of out-of-favour striker Michy Batshuayi in the summer transfer window.
The Belgian international joined the Blues from Marseille for £33m last summer and has since failed to make a single league start under Italian coach.
Batshuayi has been restricted to just late appearances off the bench while he was offered during Diego Costa's absence through suspension and injury.
With just five starts in the Cup this term, the 23-year-old has not made much of an impression on the manager, and according to The Mirror, he could be shipped out over the summer.
Conte has already lined up potential replacements for the former Marseille man with Swansea's Fernando Llorente and Torino's Andrea Belotti heading the shortlist.
Meanwhile, Arsenal contract rebel Alexis Sanchez is the other on their radar but a move is highly improbable given their rivals would not sell to a direct competitor.
Batshuayi was surprisingly benched for the FA Cup encounter against Wolverhampton Wanderers last month, and this appears to have reignited the speculation over his future.
