Michy Batshuayi, the Belgian striker of Congolese origin, had initially expressed his desire to leave the Jupiler Pro League and join the Premier League in England. Swansea showed interest in the player, and Batshuayi was keen on making the move.
However, it appears that the 19-year-old is likely to stay at Standard Liège despite pressure from the English club. According to Belgian media, Standard Liège wants to retain the services of their attacker. The club’s president, Roland Duchâtelet, is reportedly in discussions with Batshuayi and his agents with the aim of extending his contract and offering a salary increase. This suggests that Batshuayi might continue his career with Standard Liège for the time being.
