If Marseille striker Michy Batshuayi is to get his wish of a transfer this summer then there is a good chance that he could end up at the Juventus Stadium.

Reigning Serie A champions Juventus are hot on the trail of the Belgium starlet, who is currently in France featuring in the European Championship, and are prepared to make a formal move soon.

According to TuttoMercatoWeb, the player’s representatives are locked in talks with the Bianconeri over a potential move.

Batshuayi would likely serve as the replacement of Alvaro Morata, who departed the Old Lady earlier on in the summer after Real Madrid exercised their buy-back clause in his contract.

However, a move is far from confirmed as Marseille are taking time to consider their options.

The Ligue 1 outfit are well aware that there are other clubs in Europe who could look to outbid Juventus by quite some margin.

Reports in England suggested that Crystal Palace have agreed a €38 million deal for the player.
