Olympique Marseille are ready to pounce for Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi.

The Belgium international accepts he has only a bit-part role under Chelsea manager Frank Lampard and is ready to leave this summer, says Le 10 Sport.

And waiting to take him off Chelsea's hands is former club Marseille.

OM sports chief Andoni Zubizarreta is eager to do business with Chelsea about a permanent deal - though will insist any asking price must be kept low.

OM are in the process of selling a raft of players this summer - with a Premier League destination favoured - to ease cash concerns.
