Crystal Palace 'have £31.5m bid for Michy Batshuayi accepted by Marseille'

Crystal Palace's club-record £31.5m bid for Marseille striker Michy Batshuayi is reportedly accepted.

Marseille have reportedly accepted Crystal Palace's club-record £31.5m bid for Michy Batshuayi.

The 22-year-old striker has been linked with numerous clubs, including West Ham United, who are believed to have recently lodged a £28m offer.

Palace reportedly switched their focus to the Belgium international after failing to land other attacking targets such as Fiorentina's Khouma Babacar.

According to The Mirror, Palace and Marseille have agreed a €38m (£31.5m) fee, including clauses, but Batshuayi will not make a final decision on his future until after Belgium's campaign at Euro 2016.

The report adds that the striker would prefer to join a club playing Champions League football.
