One year after leaving the club, Michy Batshuayi has returned to Crystal Palace. The Premier League club announced on Thursday that the 26-year-old striker will be loaned for one year from Chelsea. Batshuayi renewed his contract at Chelsea until 2022 to pave the way for the deal to go through.
"I am absolutely delighted to welcome Michy back to Crystal Palace," Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish said in a club statement. "He is a player we’ve long admired, as well as being an immensely popular figure with everyone here during his last successful spell with us. With other top European clubs vying for his services it is immensely pleasing that Michy chose to come back to help us up the table as well as cementing his place in the Belgium squad for next summer's Euros."
