Latest Belgian starlet Batshuayi sets sights on Premier League as Arsenal head suitors
Belgian football's next big thing Michy Batshuayi will consider leaving Standard Liege for the Barclays Premier League this month.
The 20-year-old is the latest Belgian talent to be making waves among Europe's leading clubs.
Arsenal are well advanced in their scouting process with regards to Batshuayi, with a view to a summer move for the striker.
Wanted: Michy Batshuayi is a target for several Premier League clubs including Arsenal
Everton are also interested in the Belgium Under 21 international, while Borussia Dortmund are monitoring also his progress.
Batshuayi has scored 37 goals for Standard since breaking through into their first team during the 2011/12 season.
His agent Christophe Henrotay said: 'There are Premier League clubs that are following him closely, but that's all. The interest from other big leagues is more serious.

'I'm still surprised by the way Standard communicates about Michy. The situation is very simple: if a club triggers his release clause, he can start negotiating with a club.
'I've the mandate to negotiate a transfer. At this moment there are no clubs that offered the full amount to trigger the clause. My player is still happy at Standard. For sure.
'But there's a lot of interest in him. It's getting hot. When a club decides to trigger his clause, it's up to Michy to decide.'
