Dortmund's "Borussia" officially confirmed that they are borrowing 24-year-old forward Michy Batshuayi from London's "Chelsea" until the end of the season.
The "Yellow Blacks" had to look for a new forward after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang decided to move to "Arsenal." In turn, "Chelsea" prepared for O. Giroud's arrival and decided to send the Belgian to gain experience in Germany.
M. Batshuayi did not show poor performance this season - he scored 10 goals in 25 games played, but Antonio Conte wanted a different style of forward with more experience.
The Belgian arrived at "Chelsea" in the summer of 2016, but he also did not secure a place in the starting lineup last season.
In the past, M. Batshuayi has also played for the "Marseille" and "Standard Liege" teams.
