Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi has been at the center of talks between the Blues and German outfit Borussia Dortmund according to sports journalist Kristof Terreur.
Batshuayi spent four of the last six months with Dortmund having been signed on loan from Chelsea in the January transfer window. He was hugely successful in his stint with the Bundesliga giants, scoring ten goals in 14 appearances for them.

According to renowned Belgium football journalist, Terreur, there has been contact between the two clubs although no decision has been taken on the future of the former Marseille striker.
