Chelsea are ready to allow Michy Batshuayi leave Stamford bridge on-loan in the January transfer window and sign a replacement.
Batshuayi is reportedly keen on joining the Belgian squad to next year’s world cup in Russia, but he knows without regular football, he could be left at home in favour of the likes of Divock Origi and Romelu Lukaku.
The Blues would not stand in his way, and Conte would look to sign a replacement in his position when he does leave.
Batshuayi has fallen way down the perking order this season, and scored just 2 Premier League goals thus far.
He failed to even come off the bench in last weekend’s shock loss to West Ham who are coincidentally one of his admirers and looks set to leave to rebuild his career.
Meanwhile, the Blues manager has reckoned that the title race is over for them as their loss to West Ham was the fourth defeat they has suffered this season.
According to the Italian, if you lose four games after just 16 matches, it is impossible for you to win the league.
Manchester City have opened an 11 points gap at the top of the table following their 2-1 win over Manchester United on Sunday.
